Discrete TPMs are often connected over slow serial buses which, on some platforms, can have glitches causing bit flips. In all the driver _recv() functions, we need to use a u32 to unmarshal the response size, otherwise a bit flip of the 31st bit would cause the expected variable to go negative, which would then try to read a huge amount of data. Also sanity check that the expected amount of data is large enough for the TPM header.
