Well the last one about TPM suggests you may need a firmware update to 
me, if one is available. But you probably don't need a TPM so it's 
unlikely to matter, especially given it's got a fallback of polling anyway.


But yeah, looks to me like you need a newer distro/kernel. If you're 
still running Mint 20.x, there are newer kernels available - there's a 
5.13 kernel, which is what I use. Still probably too old, but might help.
