In the current driver all sysfs files end up owned by the base driver module
rather than the module that actually owns the device this is a problem if the
module is unloaded and the file is open. This patch fixes all that and lumps
the files into an attribute_group.

The TPM driver unnecessarily uses timers when it simply needs to maintain a
maximum delay via time_before(). msleep() is used instead of
schedule_timeout() to guarantee the task delays as expected. While
compile-testing, I found a typo in the driver, using tpm_chp instead of
tpm_chip. Remove the now unused timer callback function and change
TPM_TIMEOUT's units to milliseconds. Patch is compile-tested.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
