PATCH v3 1/1 tpm_tis: Check return values from get_burstcount.

If the TPM we're connecting to uses a static burst count, it will report a burst count of zero throughout the response read. However, get_burstcount assumes that a response of zero indicates that the TPM is not ready to receive more data. In this case, it returns a negative error code, which is passed on to tpm_tis_{write,read}_bytes as a u16, causing them to read/write far too many bytes.

This patch checks for negative return codes and bails out from recv_data and tpm_tis_send_data.

I gave this even more thought. This should be just

dev_err(&chip->dev, "Unable to read burstcount\n");

Use ftrace if you want to know the call site.
