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 silence this warning the driver needs to release the mutex
and acquire it again in tpm_dev_async_work() before sending
the command.

Fixes: 9e1b74a63f776 (tpm: add support for nonblocking operation)
