I would rethink this a bit. I kind of dislike this structure as it

I would rather have 

struct tpm_session {
	u32 handle;
	unsigned long created;
};

and in struct tpm_space:
	
struct tpm_session session_tbl[3];
struct list_head session_list;
	
and keep those instances that have sessions in that linked list.

What do you think? 

I'll study the actual functionality in this patch properly later.
