Hi,
Thanks for your patch.

It's not really the hardware version but the "TPM Family" according to tcg.

And yes you are right there is currently no way, except for trial and error, for the userspace to determine this.
So an interface to get this information makes sense to me.

Since it does not do anything
I would not create this function and leave the sysfs node as S_IRUGO.
