An actual bug report would have been helpful. However, from this trace
it's easy to deduce that tpm2_del_space() didn't get converted to the
get/put of the chip ops ... it's still trying to do its own half arsed
thing with tpm_chip_start() and the mutex. So isn't a much simpler fix
simply to convert it as below? compile tested only, but if you can
test it out I'll send a proper patch.
