[070/115] TPM: Long default timeout fix
From: Greg KH
Date: Tue Feb 15 2011 - 21:03:01 EST
2.6.32-longterm review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.
------------------
From: Rajiv Andrade <srajiv@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
commit c4ff4b829ef9e6353c0b133b7adb564a68054979 upstream.
If duration variable value is 0 at this point, it's because
chip->vendor.duration wasn't filled by tpm_get_timeouts() yet.
This patch sets then the lowest timeout just to give enough
time for tpm_get_timeouts() to further succeed.
This fix avoids long boot times in case another entity attempts
to send commands to the TPM when the TPM isn't accessible.
