I've tested this with the Intel platform that has an Infineon chip that
I found the other week. It works, but isn't the complete fix. With this
on top of James' patchset I sometimes see the message "Lost Interrupt
waiting for TPM stat", so I guess there needs to be a check in
wait_for_tpm_stat and request_locality to see if interrupts were
disabled when the wait_event_interruptible_timeout call times out.
