This is a sentence that you should delete:

"However over SPI those accesses require a sleepable context, since a
mutex is used in the concerning functions.  "

It neither explains anything who and why sort of stuff.

Why don't you put intead something like

"Inside tpm_int_handler(), tpm_tis_read32() and tpm_tis_write32() are
invoked. The SPI subsystem requires mutex for I/O, which means that the
calls ought not to be used inside interrupt context."

(I did not check typos). Generally speaking, commit message is as, if not
more important than the code change.

/Jarkko
ok, I will rephrase this in the next patch version.
