I believe the Linux kernel's default configuration is to filter out these commands (so your webserver doesn't set a password for you :) -- see e.g. http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/drivers/ata/libata-scsi.c?id=HEAD#n3043

(Though I'm a bit confused, that's in the libata code, and I don't see libata loaded on my laptop...)

Try adding libata.allow_tpm=1 to the kernel command line via's grub edit-command option, and see if this changes the situation.

Thanks
