I see that "fix iTPM probe via probe_itpm() function" patch isn't present
in your pull request for 4.11.

What I meant in previous message was that you squashed and "rename
TPM_TIS_ITPM_POSSIBLE to TPM_TIS_ITPM_WORKAROUND" patch into "use default 
timeout
value if chip reports it as zero" patch while it was logically connected with
"fix iTPM probe via probe_itpm() function" patch instead (which now isn't 
present
at all in the tree).
Sorry if it wasn't 100% clear.
