tpm_tis_spi: Don't send anything during flow control 

During flow control we are just reading from the TPM, yet our spi_xfer
has the tx_buf and rx_buf both non-NULL which means we're requesting a
full duplex transfer.

SPI is always somewhat of a full duplex protocol anyway and in theory
the other side shouldn't really be looking at what we're sending it
during flow control, but it's still a bit ugly to be sending some
"random" data when we shouldn't.

The default tpm_tis_spi_flow_control() tries to address this by
setting 'phy->iobuf[0] = 0'.  This partially avoids the problem of
sending "random" data, but since our tx_buf and rx_buf both point to
the same place I believe there is the potential of us sending the
TPM's previous byte back to it if we hit the retry loop.

Another flow control implementation, cr50_spi_flow_control(), doesn't
address this at all.

Let's clean this up and just make the tx_buf NULL before we call
flow_control().  Not only does this ensure that we're not sending any
"random" bytes but it also possibly could make the SPI controller
behave in a slightly more optimal way.

NOTE: no actual observed problems are fixed by this patch--it's was
just made based on code inspection.
