The tpm-tis-device doesn't work for x86_64 but for aarch64.


We have this here in this file:

      DEFINE_PROP_BOOL("ppi", TPMStateSysBus, state.ppi_enabled, false),

I don't know whether ppi would work on aarch64. It needs firmware support like 
in edk2.
I think the best solution is to remove this DEFINE_PROP_BOOL() and if someone 
wants
to enable it they would have to add firmware support and test it before 
re-enabling it.

   static void tpm_tis_sysbus_class_init(ObjectClass *klass, void *data)

Yeah, I'm not sure if PPI works with AARCH64 since I didn't bother to
change it to not use hard coded addresses. However, isn't that "ppi"
overridable from the command line? If so, should we add a check in
"realize" to error if PPI=true? Otherwise, it will just crash.

Once the option is removed via my patch (cc'ed you), then you get this once you 
pass ppi=on on the command line:

qemu-system-aarch64: -device tpm-tis-device,tpmdev=tpm0,ppi=on: Property 
'tpm-tis-device.ppi' not found

This disables it for good.
