This read-only CucsEquipmentConfigState enum reports the progress of applying a pending administrative action (like the clear-ownership request above) against this TPM -- whether it's still applying, has completed, or failed. This lets an admin confirm a security-sensitive change to the TPM's state actually took effect rather than assuming success once the action was submitted. A config state stuck at 'applying' well after a clear-ownership request was issued would indicate the operation needs to be retried or investigated.
