I think I got you wit with_for_tpm_stat. It's CRB specific internal
thing and thus using wait_for_tpm_stat would be abusing that function
and making it dependent on CRB driver internals.

Could you add a note on this to the commit message and I would be
find with your implementation.

I started to think about this after I wrote about callback names.
