I'm not sure quite what you mean here. Are you suggesting that
tpm_del_char_device should unconditionally call the tpm_shutdown that
this patch introduces? Or that the tpm2_shutdown function from
drivers/char/tpm/tpm2-cmd.c (which right now just sends the
TPM2_Shutdown command) be renamed to tpm_shutdown?

This is again in reference to
https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/9516631/; if at some point in the
future a developer wishes to enable sysfs support for TPM2.0, the
implicit locking must be fixed.
I've attempted to clarify the phrasing here.
