tpm_tis_req_canceled() function is used to check if the caller requested
to abort the current operation. It was found that in some cases
tpm_tis_req_canceled() wrongly returned true.
Since a cancel request sets the TPM_STS.commandReady field to TRUE, the
tpm_tis_req_canceled() function should check only the TPM_STS.commandReady
field value.
The case for TPM_VID_WINBOND is wrong and was therefore removed.

Also, the default comparison is wrong. Only cmdReady bit needs to be
compared instead of the full lower status register byte.

Fixes: 1f866057291f ("tpm: Fix cancellation of TPM commands (polling mode)")

Also here, I'm not sure about the fixes tag (same reasoning
as for 1/6).
