Some TPMs fail to grant locality when requested immediately after being
relinquished. In this case, the TPM_ACCESS_REQUEST_USE bit of the
TPM_ACCESS register is cleared immediately without setting
TPM_ACCESS_ACTIVE_LOCALITY.

This issue can be seen at boot since tpm_chip_start, called right
after locality is relinquished, fails. This causes the probe to fail:

tpm_tis MSFT0101:00: probe with driver tpm_tis failed with error -1

This occurs on some older Dell Latitudes and maybe others. To work
around this, add a "settle" boolean param to tpm_tis. When this is
enabled, a delay is added after locality is relinquished.

Changes v3:
- Renamed the series from "Add optional delay after relinquish" to
  "Fix probe of some older TPMs"
- Addressed review comment, saving entire did_vid in priv structure.
- Use did_vid value to identify problem TPM and apply quirk.
Changes v2:
- Move delay from tpm_tis_relinquish_locality to
  __tpm_tis_relinquish_locality.

Link to v2: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260519154530.6386-1-jbroadus@gmail.com/

The entire 32 bit did_vid is read from the device, but only the 16 bit
vendor id portion was stored in the tpm_tis_data structure. Storing the
entire value allows the device id to be used to handle quirks. Printing
the vid and did in the error case also helps identify problem devices.

TPM_ACCESS register is cleared immediately without setting

This issue can be seen at boot since tpm_chip_start, called right

fail:

This occurs on some older Dell Latitudes. For the Nuvoton TPM used in
these machines, add a delay after locality is relinquished.
