The tpm2_get_cc_attrs_tbl() call will result in TPM commands being issued,
which will need the use of the internal command/response buffer. But,
we're issuing this *before* we've waited to make sure that buffer is
allocated.
This can result in intermittent failures to probe if the hypervisor / TPM
implementation doesn't respond quickly enough. I find it fails almost
every time with an 8 vcpu guest under KVM with software emulated TPM.
To fix it, just move the tpm2_get_cc_attrs_tlb() call after the
existing code to wait for initialization, which will ensure the buffer
is allocated.
Fixes: 18b3670d79ae9 ("tpm: ibmvtpm: Add support for TPM2")
