Right. I'll update that too.

I strongly think that the struct acpi_tpm2_control should not be in
actbl3.h. It is not defined in the TCG ACPI specification. It is
defined in

http://www.trustedcomputinggroup.org/resources/pc_client_platform_tpm_profile_ptp_specification

FIFO control structures are internal for to the TPM subsystem and so
should be CRB control structures (and we have already inside tpm_crb.c).

The structure ended up there probably because it was combined with the
TPM2 table in that Microsoft specification.
