+Subject: [PATCH] tpm: Make SECURITYFS a weak dependency
+
+commit 2f7d8dbb11287cbe9da6380ca14ed5d38c9ed91f upstream.
+
+While having SECURITYFS enabled for the tpm subsystem is beneficial in
+most cases, it is not strictly necessary to have it enabled at all.
+Especially on platforms without any boot firmware integration of the TPM
+(e.g. raspberry pi) it does not add any value for the tpm subsystem,
+as there is no eventlog present.
+
+By turning it from 'select' to 'imply' it still gets selected per
+default, but enables users who want to save some kb of ram by turning
+SECURITYFS off.
