It doesn't apply to 4.4 for me:

	~/linux/stable/linux-4.4.y $ patch -p1 --dry-run < ../tpm-tpm_i2c_atmel-return-e2big-when-the-transfer-is-incomplete.patch
	checking file drivers/char/tpm/tpm_i2c_atmel.c
	Hunk #1 FAILED at 69.
	1 out of 1 hunk FAILED

So something must have changed :(

Care to provide a working backport?

thanks,
