If the IMA default hash algorithm is not enabled, James' comment was
to use SHA256 for TPM 2.0 and SHA1 for TPM 1.2. ÂI don't remember him
saying anything about using the first bank, that was in v1 of my
patch. ÂPlease refer to v2 of my patch, based on James' comments.

Sure, backporting this change to ima_calc_boot_aggregate_tfm() should
be fine.
