>From drivers/char/tpm/tpm.c,

static ssize_t transmit_cmd(struct tpm_chip *chip, struct tpm_cmd_t *cmd,
                            int len, const char *desc)
{
        int err;

        len = tpm_transmit(chip,(u8 *) cmd, len);
        if (len <  0)
                return len;
        if (len == TPM_ERROR_SIZE) {
                err = be32_to_cpu(cmd->header.out.return_code);
                dev_dbg(chip->dev, "A TPM error (%d) occurred %s\n", err, desc);
                return err;
        }
        return 0;
}

Where, desc comes from rc = tpm_getcap(dev, TPM_CAP_PROP_MANUFACTURER,
&cap, "attempting to determine the manufacturer");

TPM_ERROR_SIZE is 10, looks like it satisfies that condition.
