As per my understanding, the count in the TPML_PCR_SELECTION represent 
the number of possible banks and not the number of active banks.
TCG Structures Spec for TPM 2.0 - Table 102 mentions this as explanation 
of #TPM_RC_SIZE.
Instead of storing the result in a local variable, the only change
here is saving the result in the chip info (nr_active_banks).
 Everything else remains the same.

With this change, the exact number of banks can be allocated, as done
here.  Nice!
