Oh, I am glad you can test modules..

I botched the makefile changes for the new .c files.

I believe it should be like this:

obj-$(CONFIG_TCG_TPM) += tpm-core.o
tpm-core-y := tpm.o tpm-dev.o tpm-sysfs.o

EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL is not correct, these are in-module references, not
cross module references, and I've deliberately not exported them to
prevent drivers from trying to use them inappropriately.

Let me know if you want me to respin things.
