tpm: Fix error handling in async work

When an invalid (non existing) handle is used in a TPM command,
that uses the resource manager interface (/dev/tpmrm0) the resource
manager tries to load it from its internal cache, but fails and
the tpm_dev_transmit returns an -EINVAL error to the caller.
The existing async handler doesn't handle these error cases
currently and the condition in the poll handler never returns
mask with EPOLLIN set.
The result is that the poll call blocks and the application gets stuck
until the user_read_timer wakes it up after 120 sec.
Change the tpm_dev_async_work function to handle error conditions
returned from tpm_dev_transmit they are also reflected in the poll mask
and a correct error code could passed back to the caller.
