TPM: Long default timeout fix
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.
