Fix to return a negative error code from the error handling
case instead of 0, as done elsewhere in this function.

Fixes: 58472f5cd4f6("tpm: validate TPM 2.0 commands")
Reported-by: Hulk Robot <redacted>

In the commit message:

1. Instead of writing "a negative error code", write -EFAULT.
OK, I will change it.
quoted
2. Some explanation of the choice.
Do you mean why I choice error code -EFAULT? There's a similar one above this branch.

        if (nr_commands > 0xFFFFF) {
                rc = -EFAULT;
                goto out;
        }
I mean that the commit message must rationalize whatever the commit does,
and choices made.
