What you should do, is to define two fields:

- tpm_timeout_min
- tpm_timeout_max

And initialize these to TPM_TIMEOUT_USECS_MIN and TPM_TIMEOUT_USECS_MAX.

Then fixup those for Atmel (with a simple if-statement, switch-case is
overkill).

The way you work out things right now is broken:

1. Before for non-Atmel: usleep_range(100, 500)
2. After for non-Atmel: usleep_range(200, 500)

I.e. the patch changes code semantically that it should not touch in the
first place.
