I am not sure why mapping all errors to -ENODEV resolves the fact that 
tpm2_sessions_init() does not ignore the result of 
tpm2_create_null_primary(). I think what you want is to return -ENODEV 
from tpm2_auto_startup.

v5:
- Do not print klog messages on error, as tpm2_save_context() already
   takes care of this.
v4:
- Fixed up stable version.
v3:
- Handle TPM and POSIX error separately and return -ENODEV always back
   to the caller.
v2:
- Refined the commit message.
