tpm_ibmvtpm: properly handle interrupted packet receptions
When the TPM response reception is interrupted in the wait_event_interruptable call, the TPM is still busy processing the command and will only deliver the response later. So we have to wait for an outstanding response before sending a new request to avoid trying to put a 2nd request into the CRQ. Also reset the res_len before sending a command so we will end up in that wait_event_interruptable() waiting for the response rather than reading the command packet as a response. The easiest way to trigger the problem is to run the following cd /sys/device/vio/71000004 while :; cat pcrs >/dev/null; done And press Ctrl-C. This will then display an error tpm_ibmvtpm 71000004: tpm_transmit: tpm_recv: error -4 followed by several other errors once interaction with the TPM resumes. tpm_ibmvtpm 71000004: A TPM error (101) occurred attempting to determine the number of PCRS.
