When TPMs generate keys, they can also generate some information describing the state of the PCRs at creation time. This data can then later be certified by the TPM, allowing verification of the PCR values. This allows us to determine the state of the system at the time a key was generated. Add an additional argument to the trusted key creation options, allowing the user to provide the set of PCRs that should have their values incorporated into the creation data.

LGTM too. Something popped into mind: could we make PCR 23 reservation dynamic instead of a config option. E.g. if the user space uses it, then it's dirty and hibernate will fail. I really dislike the static compilation time firewall on it. /Jarkko
