tpm: fix an invalid condition in tpm_common_poll
The poll condition should only check response_length, because reads should only be issued if there is data to read. The response_read flag only prevents double writes. The problem was that the write set the response_read to false, enqued a tpm job, and returned. Then application called poll which checked the response_read flag and returned EPOLLIN. Then the application called read, but got nothing. After all that the async_work kicked in. Added also mutex_lock around the poll check to prevent other possible race conditions.
