The number of prerequisite fixes before we can apply the fix
748935eeb72c343 makes this a rather overly involved fix.  I doubt it
will be SRU'able.  Since this *only* occurs when accessing two TPM
related interfaces in a fast multiple multi-threaded race on a few
specific x86 devices as root makes this a very risky set of backport
changes for such a corner case.

For now, I'm going to force stress-ng sysfs test to skip the tpm files
for older kernels to workaround this issue. (Ugh).

Workaround committed in stress-ng:
