I mean @kernel.org.

I mangled the short summary as 

"tpm: add longer timeout for TPM2_CC_VERIFY_SIGNATURE"

given that 

1. The subsystem tag was wrong.
2. Always to talk about the *exact thing*. I.e. in this case it's
   preferable to just write the command name, as"verify time signature
   command" does not have any formal menaing.

It's now applied, thanks.
