Glad to see Linus giving this more visibility. There was a huge forum thread on the LTT Forums about users with this issue when Microsoft announced that Windows 11 would require TPM. AMD has attempted to fix it and the fixes have been completely ineffective on my system (B450 chipset using both a Ryzen 3700X and a 5800X).

On the plus side, I don't get Windows reminding me to upgrade to 11 on my desktop because it thinks it is incompatible!

I don't get that anymore... But for months my windows 10 was still trying to upgrade automatically despite my PC never having TPM. Only to fail every time of course. Now it's finally acknowledging that it's "incompatible" too.

I have a Ryzen that's supposed to be fTPM capable but since I saw lots of performance complaints I never switched it on.
