TCPA log are can be empty when the TPM is disabled. This commit changes the
behavior of tpm_read_log_acpi() to return successfully in this case.
The commit should explain why we'd want this..

eg Why does it matter to create the extra sysfs files to report an empty
log?

The initialization of the driver will fail otherwise. Not sure if I
understand your question.
