[PATCH] tpm: tpm_try_transmit() ignore value of go_to_idle()

Ignore the return value of go_to_idle() in tpm_try_transmit().
Once it may shadow the return value of actual tpm operation,
second the consequent command will fail as well and the error
will be caought anyway.
Last fix wrong goto, that jumped back instead of forward.

Fixes: 627448e85c76 ("tpm: separate cmd_ready/go_idle from runtime_pm")
