[PATCH v1] tpm: restore timeout for key creation commands

[PATCH v1] tpm: restore timeout for key creation commands

[Baoli.Zhang]

After the per-command duration map was introduced, TPM2 key creation
commands (`CREATE_PRIMARY`, `CREATE`, `CREATE_LOADED`) were limited to
30 seconds.

On some platforms this is not sufficient and key creation can time out.
Commit 207696b17f38 ("tpm: use a map for tpm2_calc_ordinal_duration()")
inadvertently reduced these command timeouts from 300 seconds to 30
seconds. Restore them to 300 seconds to avoid spurious failures.

Fixes: 207696b17f38 ("tpm: use a map for tpm2_calc_ordinal_duration()")

Dear Baoli,


Thank you for your patch. Some formalities:

Please document such a platform.

It’d be great if you remove the dot from your name:

     git config --global user.name "Baoli Zhang"

Same here. Maybe spell it Lili Li?

     git commit --amend --author="BaoliZhang 
<baoli.zhang@linux.intel.com>" -s

Thanks for your comments, I will add the platform after the internal 
alignment.
