Please use '-' in comaptible strings rather than '_'.
Erk, there is also a typo spi vs mmio.
Urgh; missed that too.
Note that the SPI patches were already Ack'd by DT so there is now
precedent:

Documentation/devicetree/bindings/security/tpm/tpm_tis_spi.txt:    "tcg,tpm_tis-spi"
Urgh, that should not have gone in as-is.
Do you still want to change? 
Regardless of the bad example in the SPI case, this should use a dash.
Should we change spi too?
That was in v4.8, so it's too late to change it now.

Please also describe chip strings, even if those aren't use by the
driver, e.g.
Sure, I can give one or two, but the list will not be exhaustive,
there are many different TPM chips that adhere to this standard.
Just the one from the example for now is fine; we can add new ones as we
add DTs that use them.

Thanks,
Mark.
