This set of patches implements support for migrating the state of the
external 'swtpm' TPM emulator as well as that of the emulated device
interfaces. I have primarily tested this with the TIS and TPM 1.2 so
far, but it also seems to work with TPM 2.

The TIS is simplified first by reducing the number of buffers and read
and write offsets into these buffers. Following the state machine of the
TIS, a single buffer and r/w offset is enough for all localities since
only one locality can ever be active.

This series applies on top of my tpm-next branch.

One of the challenges that is addressed by this set of patches is the fact
that the TPM emulator may be processing a command while the state
serialization of the devices is supposed to happen. A necessary first step
has been implemented here that ensures that a response has been received
from the exernal emulator and the bottom half function, which delivers the
response and adjusts device registers (TIS or CRB), has been executed,
before the device's state is serialized.

A subsequent extension may need to address the live migration loop and delay
the serialization of devices until the response from the external TPM has
been received. Though the likelihood that someone executes a long-lasting
TPM command while this is occurring is certainly rare.
