I posted these LTP patches as RFC since the kernel patches themselves haven't 
been
upstreamed.  I'm still waiting for some kernel patch reviews. Posting these LTP 
patches
might help with that.

Having multiple open-writers or ToMToU violations doesn't provide any benefit 
in terms of
attestation.  It just clutters the audit log and the IMA measurement list.  Not 
extending
the TPM would be a performance improvement.  I'm not sure it would be 
classified as a
security feature or bug fix.
