It is not necessary to define a new map. ima_tpm_chip->allocated_banks
has a crypto_id field.

This code assumes that the algorithm used to calculate boot_aggregate and
the algorithm of the PCR bank can be different. I don't know if it is possible to
communicate to the verifier which bank has been selected (it depends on
the local configuration).

In my opinion the safest approach would be to use the same algorithm for the
digest and the PCR bank. If you agree to this, then the code above must be
moved to ima_calc_boot_aggregate() so that the algorithm of the selected
PCR bank can be passed to ima_alloc_tfm().

The selected PCR bank might be not the first, if the algorithm is unknown to
the crypto subsystem.

Typo.
