This is a regression when this code was reworked and made the error
print unconditional. The original code deliberately suppressed printing
of the first error message so it could quietly sense
TPM_ERR_INVALID_POSTINIT.

Fixes: a502feb67b47 ("tpm: Clean up reading of timeout and duration capabilities")

Thanks for spotting this out. I'll apply this tomorrow (i.e. not
tonight) as it does not endager stability in anyway as I test the
other fixes.

Hey Jarkko, I couldn't find this patch in your trees and it didn't

My bad. It's applied now. Can you check that everything looks good
and I'll ask James to take the fixes that I have to 4.10?
