I think there is a confusion concerning fHPBEn flag.
The spec say: "If host wants to enable HPB, host set the fHPBEn flag as ‘1’."
And its default value is '0'.
So upon successful init, we should set this flag and not read it.

I wouldn't rush to fix it however, before we see what Martin/Greg are planning for this feature.
Thanks,
Avri
