A transport error (tpm_transmit_cmd() < 0) is thus swallowed together with the intentionally ignored TPM response code, leaving TPM_CHIP_FLAG_TPM2 unset. A transient bus failure on the first command then misdetects a TPM 2.0 as a 1.2 and the probe fails on the TPM 1.2 path: tpm_tis_i2c 0-002e: 1.2 TPM (device-id 0x1C, rev-id 22) tpm tpm0: A TPM error (-62) occurred attempting to determine the timeouts Return the transport error instead; rc >= 0 still means a valid header was received and the TPM's own response code is still ignored.
