The whole patch series can be found in one patch at: https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v5.x/stable-review/patch-5.3.16-rc1.... or in the git tree and branch at: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-stable-rc.git linux-5.3.y and the diffstat can be found below.
the following is from "dmesg -l warn"

WARNING: lock held when returning to user space! 5.3.16-rc1+ #1 Tainted: G E
tpm2-abrmd/679 is leaving the kernel with locks still held! 2 locks held by tpm2-abrmd/679: #0: 00000000d3bc394f (&chip->ops_sem){.+.+}, at: tpm_try_get_ops+0x2b/0xb0 [tpm] #1: 000000004a4d7099 (&chip->tpm_mutex){+.+.}, at: tpm_try_get_ops+0x4b/0xb0 [tpm]

the fix for the above to a typical kernel is here ...
I need to wait for that to get into Linus's tree before we can do anything about it for a stable kernel release.
