Cosmetic: parentheses when referring to functions.

There should not be an empty line here.

Description should

Better to just have:

Return:
TPM return code,
-errno otherwise

There is a lot of variance in return values but this is the format where
I would like the code base to dilate to. Describing TPM return codes
one by one is not very maintainable in the long run.

What is the purpose of this comment eg what does it describe that isn't
obvious?
