tpm_tis: Fix the probing for interrupts
This patch fixes several aspects of the probing for interrupts. This patch reads the TPM's timeouts before probing for the interrupts. The tpm_get_timeouts() function is invoked in polling mode and gets the proper timeouts from the TPM so that we don't need to fall back to 2 minutes timeouts for short duration commands while the interrupt probing is happening. This patch introduces a variable probed_irq into the vendor structure that gets the irq number if an interrupt is received while the the tpm_gen_interrupt() function is run in polling mode during interrupt probing. Previously some parts of tpm_gen_interrupt() were run in polling mode, then the irq variable was set in the interrupt handler when an interrupt was received and execution of tpm_gen_interrupt() ended up switching over to interrupt mode. tpm_gen_interrupt() execution ended up on an event queue where it eventually timed out since the probing handler doesn't wake any queues. Before calling into free_irq() clear all interrupt flags that may have been set by the TPM. The reason is that free_irq() will call into the probing interrupt handler and may otherwise fool us into thinking that a real interrupt happened (because we see the flags as being set) while the TPM's interrupt line is not even connected to anything on the motherboard. This solves a problem on one machine I did testing on (Thinkpad T60). If a TPM claims to use a specifc interrupt, the probing is done as well to verify that the interrupt is actually working. If a TPM indicates that it does not use a specific interrupt (returns '0'), probe all interrupts from 3 to 15.
