The TPM driver currently discards the interface timeout values returned from the TPM. The check of the response packet needs to consider that the return_code field is 0 on success and the size of the expected packet is equivalent to the header size + u32 length indicator for the TPM_GetCapability() result + 4 interface timeout indicators of type u32.
