s/Every other driver/Some drivers, such as tpm_tis_spi,/g.

This does not really explain why you are moving the code.

You are moving it so that you don't have to reimplement things both in
SPI and I2C drivers?

Perhaps:

"Re-implement tpm_tis_{read, write}_{16, 32}, so that they check
 if implementations for {read, write}_{16, 32} in tpm_tis_phys_ops
 exist, and if not, fallback to {read, write}_bytes()."

Since there's been a while, it'd be better if you dropped my tags.
I consider them as expired by now. Please do this for all patches.
