The vendor check introduced by commit 554b841d4703 ("tpm: Disable RNG for all AMD fTPMs") doesn't work properly on a number of Intel fTPMs. On the reported systems the TPM doesn't reply at bootup and returns back the command code. This makes the TPM fail probe.
Since only Microsoft Pluton is the only known combination of AMD CPU and fTPM from other vendor, disable hwrng otherwise. In order to make sysadmin aware of this, print also info message to the klog.
