There are two options for AES cipher algorithms under

Dear all,
during the initialization of the TPM TIS driver, the necessary
locality has to be requested earlier in the init-process. Depending on
the used TPM chip, this leads to wrong information.
For example: Lenovo X61s with Atmel TPM:

This patch removes some redundant code in the function setup_sigcontext().
The registers ar.ccv,b7,r14,ar.csd,ar.ssd,r2-r3 and r16-r31 are not restored
in restore_sigcontext() when (flags & IA64_SC_FLAG_IN_SYSCALL) is true.
So we don't need to zero those variables in setup_sigcontext().

Agreed, but this is neither complex nor is it a scenario.
