[PATCH] tpm_crb: fix crb_req_canceled behavior

[PATCH] tpm_crb: fix crb_req_canceled behavior

[Jarkko Sakkinen]

The req_canceled() callback is used by tpm_transmit() periodically to
check whether the request has been canceled while it is receiving a
response from the TPM.

The TPM_CRB_CTRL_CANCEL register was cleared already in the crb_cancel
callback, which has two consequences:

* Cancel might not happen.
* req_canceled() always returns zero.

A better place to clear the register is when starting to send a new
command. The behavior of TPM_CRB_CTRL_CANCEL is described in the
section 5.5.3.6 of the PTP specification.
