Prior to Linux 5.8, the SHA1 template data hashes were padded before
being extended into the TPM.  Support for calculating and extending
the per TPM bank template data digests is only being upstreamed in
Linux 5.8.

How will attestation servers know whether to include PCRs 8 & 9 in the
the boot_aggregate calculation?  Now, there is a direct relationship
between the template data SHA1 padded digest not including PCRs 8 & 9,
and the new per TPM bank template data digest including them.
