    Subject[070/115] TPM: Long default timeout fix
    2.6.32-longterm review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

    ------------------

    From: Rajiv Andrade <srajiv@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

    commit c4ff4b829ef9e6353c0b133b7adb564a68054979 upstream.

    If duration variable value is 0 at this point, it's because
    chip->vendor.duration wasn't filled by tpm_get_timeouts() yet.
    This patch sets then the lowest timeout just to give enough
    time for tpm_get_timeouts() to further succeed.

    This fix avoids long boot times in case another entity attempts
    to send commands to the TPM when the TPM isn't accessible.
