IBM vTPM driver lacks a call to tpm2_sessions_init() and reports:

[    2.987131] tpm tpm0: tpm2_load_context: failed with a TPM error 0x01C4
[    2.987140] ima: Error Communicating to TPM chip, result: -14

HMAC encryption code also has a risk of null derefence, given that when
uninitialized, chip->auth is a null pointer.

Limit TCG_TPM2_HMAC to known good drivers until these issues have been
properly fixed.
