TPM: Zero buffer whole after copying to userspace

Commit 3321c07ae5068568cd61ac9f4ba749006a7185c9 correctly clears the TPM
buffer if the user specified read length is >= the TPM buffer length. However,
if the user specified read length is < the TPM buffer length, then part of the
TPM buffer is left uncleared.
