Why do we have to do this anymore?  Given that you're already pushing
patches that map RTMRs to TPM PCRs:

Can't you just add a stub TCG2 driver to EFI that exposes only the
ability to log and measure using this mapping?  That way all our
existing code will "just work" without the need to understand anything
about confidential computing or add new code to do the measurement?
