[PATCH] tpm: infineon section mismatch

[PATCH] tpm: infineon section mismatch

[Randy Dunlap]

From: Randy Dunlap <randy.dunlap@oracle.com>

Fix section mismatch by making the driver template variable name
match one of the whitelisted variable names in modpost.

WARNING: vmlinux.o(.data+0x7a9e8): Section mismatch: reference to .init.text:tpm_inf_pnp_probe (between 'tpm_inf_pnp' and 'cn_idx')
