Moving forward to actual fixes is to fixup tpm_chip_boostrap() as
follows:

1. Saving the handle and not saving the context in the null key
   creation. I.e. rip of create_primary_null() or whatever the
   function was called.
2. Use that handle to go through selftest.
3. Save the context in the end of the bootstrap.

That cuts out unnecessary overhead of saving and loading context
between null key creation and selftest. I'll do this fix and see
how much it affects the boot time.
