The tpm2_get_cc_attrs_tbl() call will result in TPM commands being issued,
which will need the use of the internal command/response buffer.  But,
we're issuing this *before* we've waited to make sure that buffer is
allocated.

This can result in intermittent failures to probe if the hypervisor / TPM
implementation doesn't respond quickly enough.  I find it fails almost
every time with an 8 vcpu guest under KVM with software emulated TPM.

Uuuh. Thanks!
