Okay, but what actual use is this?

Extendable measrements with no log
Measurement read back without signature

What is the use case? What do you imagine any userspace will do with
this? Put it in the cover letter.

I don't think the raw rmm calls are sufficiently developed to be
usable directly by userspace. They are less capable than TPM and even
TPM has a lot of software around it to make it useful.
