    tpm: Keep CLKRUN enabled throughout the duration of transmit_cmd()
    
    Commit 5e572cab92f0bb5 ("tpm: Enable CLKRUN protocol for Braswell
    systems") disabled CLKRUN protocol during TPM transactions and re-enabled
    once the transaction is completed. But there were still some corner cases
    observed where, reading of TPM header failed for savestate command
    while going to suspend, which resulted in suspend failure.
    To fix this issue keep the CLKRUN protocol disabled for the entire
    duration of a single TPM command and not disabling and re-enabling
    again for every TPM transaction. For the other TPM accesses outside
    TPM command flow, add a higher level of disabling and re-enabling
    the CLKRUN protocol, instead of doing for every TPM transaction.
    
    Fixes: 5e572cab92f0bb5 ("tpm: Enable CLKRUN protocol for Braswell systems")
