Just to note, the return value from tpm_do_selftest() on TPM 1.2 chips was 
previously ignored. Mine does return 0.

Right. I can update the patch to ignore return value if the majority
wants that.

What happens to the system when pnp_driver.resume() returns failure?

Should tpm ever report failure on resume to the rest of the kernel?

Shouldn't this stuff be in tpm_pm_resume common code anyhow?
