Previously, if the last attempt to execute the selftest command failed with RC_TESTING, there was still a call to tpm_msleep, even though no further attempt would be made. This causes an unnecessary delay, therefore ensure that if the last attempt fails the function is left immediately. Also, instead of ensuring that the cumulated runtime of all attempts is larger than the command duration for TPM2_SelfTest, ensure that there is at least one attempt for which the delay is larger than the expected command duration. This allows slow TPMs to execute all their tests in the background, without slowing down faster TPMs that have finished their tests earlier. If tests are still not finished even with this long delay, then something is broken and the TPM is not used.
