The error in question is TPM_RC_TESTING i.e. TPM is still processing
selftests in the background.

It is clearly a regression but unfortanely it is harmless and unrelated
i.e. tpm2_do_selftest() should not print an error message because it
is legit behavior.

The function actually masks the whole error:

	if (rc == TPM2_RC_TESTING)
		rc = TPM2_RC_SUCCESS;
