Add a condition to enable communication with the TPM while the TPM is in
firmware update mode.
In such a case if power was cut during the TPM firmware update, the driver
should ignore the "selftest" command return code (TPM2_RC_UPGRADE or
TPM2_RC_COMMAND_CODE) and skip the rest of the TPM initialization
sequence.

This is a half-baked handling of the FW upgrade mode.

There's another patch in progress that aims to do proper handling
for it:

I CC'd Borys for further comments/discussion.
