3.2-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: Stefan Berger <[email protected]> commit a927b8131794ee449b7f6666e7ab61301949b20f upstream. This patch adds a delay after aborting a command. Some TPMs need this and will not process the subsequent command correctly otherwise. It's worth noting that a TPM randomly failing to process a command, maps to randomly failing suspend/resume operations.
