Should this function be in drivers/char/tpm/tpm2-cmd.c instead of here?

The callers of this function assume it returns a negative errno value. But
actually it can return positive TPM2_RC_* error codes as well. Probably you
should make it only return negative errno values.

sizeof(struct tpm2_null_auth_area) => sizeof(auth_area)

unsigned char => u8

Also, since the code to append a "null" authorization area appears in both
tpm2_pcr_reset() and tpm2_pcr_extend(), perhaps it should be refactored into a
helper function?

struct tpm2_null_auth_area is only used by code in drivers/char/tpm/, so should
its declaration go in the internal header drivers/char/tpm/tpm.h instead?
