This patch set introduces a generic TEE subsystem. The TEE subsystem will
contain drivers for various TEE implementations. A TEE (Trusted Execution
Environment) is a trusted OS running in some secure environment, for
example, TrustZone on ARM CPUs, or a separate secure co-processor etc.
Have you considered moving the code to a security subsystem? Back in the
days I talked to some of the TPM maintainers and they were not closed to
the idea of having support for hardware security extensions in a single
place. I think TPM is still considered as a char device...

We would all benefit if it were possible to have an overview of all
available all the security extensions, if nothing else at least for the
documentation.
