Unfortunately, we don't have that info. It's not easy to get it
because the clock detection code doesn't run until we're nearly at the
tpmhw_probe() code anyway.
That said, for tis_probe() is there any harm in moving the didvid
check up? I understand it theoretically isn't setup yet, but I'd
imagine in practice it always would be. Just as, in practice, I
suspect the tpm would always be ready by the time we got to the
tpmhw_probe() code. See below.
