Subject: tpm_tis_spi: Abort transfer when too many wait states are signaled

From: Peter Huewe <peter.huewe@infineon.com>

commit 975094ddc369a32f27210248bdd9bbd153061b00 upstream.

Abort the transfer with ETIMEDOUT when the TPM signals more than
TPM_RETRY wait states. Continuing with the transfer in this state
will only lead to arbitrary failures in other parts of the code.
