An unexpected status from TPM chip is not irrecovable failure of the
kernel. It's only undesirable situation. Thus, change the WARN_ONCE
instance inside tpm_tis_status() to pr_warn_once().

In addition: print the status in the log message because it is actually
useful information lacking from the existing log message.
