I'm sorry but just now that I started applying these patches this patch
started to bother me.

I think inside tpm_get_timeouts() I'd rather something along the lines
(with error handling and such details taken away):

rc = tpm_getcap(...);

if (rc == TPM_ERR_INVALID_POSTINIT) {
	tpm_startup(...);
	tpm_getca(...);
}

This is bogus code. All this kind of checks should be contained in
tpm_transmit_cmd(). This is easily "fixed" by moving tpm_getcap() :)
