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.
