Ummm...  Something else I've just noticed...

	static ssize_t tpm_transmit(struct tpm_chip *chip, const char *buf,
					       size_t bufsiz)

would suggest that buf is read-only, but tpm_transit() keeps casting it away,
and especially, casts it away before passing it to chip->vendor.recv()...
This would seem to indicate a logic error somewhere.

Certainly, tpm_atml_recv() modifies the buffer it is given to...

I suspect the argument and reply buffer pointers should be passed separately.
