tpm: fix invalid locking in NONBLOCKING mode
When an application sends TPM commands in NONBLOCKING mode the driver holds chip->tpm_mutex returning from write(), which triggers: "WARNING: lock held when returning to user space". To fix this issue the driver needs to release the mutex before returning and acquire it again in tpm_dev_async_work() before sending the command.
