IIRC, there is/was no dependency between these and FF-A patches that are
queued in terms of build. I agree there may be dependency to get all the
functionality but we can resort to linux-next for that. FF-A is not enabled
in the defconfig, so anyone working on FF-A + TPM must enable then and can
rely on -next IMHO.
That said, I have already sent PR for FF-A to SoC team and it is already
queued for v7.2. I don't have any other plans unless they are fixes.
