[PATCH] tpm: fix byte order related arithmetic inconsistency in tpm_getcap()

You should not do arithmetic with __be32 or __le32 types because
sometimes it results incorrect results. Calculations must be done only
with integers that are in in the CPU byte order. This commit migrates
tpm_getcap() to struct tpm_buf in order to sort out these issues.

Now this should work as Robertos patches move byte order conversion
where it should be. Sadly I'm out of reach to my Dell E6400 laptop
that I use for TPM 1.2 testing.
