[PATCH] TPM: Wait for TPM_ACCESS tpmRegValidSts to go high at startup

[Jason Gunthorpe]

The TIS specification (pg 47) says the valid bit must be set, but
the TPM will not set it until it has completed its internal startup.

The driver checks that the valid bit is set during request_locality,
but it issues a TPM_ACCESS_REQUEST_USE without validating the
valid bit is set.

Some TPMs will ignore the TPM_ACCESS_REQUEST_USE, until valid is
set which causes the request_locality to timeout, which breaks the
driver attach.

Wait one timeout unit for valid to assert. If valid does not assert
then assume -ENODEV.

Seen on embedded with a:
1.2 TPM (device-id 0x3204, rev-id 64)

Note: This does not change the requirement of the driver,
request_locality already will bail if valid is not set. All this does
is wait for valid to be set before attempting to write any TPM
registers.
