using bare numbers here without comment isn't really best practice. 
 What about setting header.in.length in both legs of the if() to either

tpm_cmd.header.in.length = cpu_to_be32(HEADER_SIZE + sizeof(struct tpm_getcap_params_in))

or 

/* setting subcap_size to zero allows us to elimnate the subcap field */
tpm_cmd.header.in.length = cpu_to_be32(HEADER_SIZE + sizeof(struct tpm_getcap_params_in) - sizeof(tpm_cmd.params.getcap_in.subcap))
