I'd suggest a workaround for the time being.
In 6.12 we added this for (heavy) IMA use:
tpm.disable_pcr_integrity= [HW,TPM]
Do not protect PCR registers from unintended physical
access, or interposers in the bus by the means of
having an integrity protected session wrapped around
TPM2_PCR_Extend command. Consider this in a situation
where TPM is heavily utilized by IMA, thus protection
causing a major performance hit, and the space where
machines are deployed is by other means guarded.
Similarly it might make sense to have "tpm.disable_random_integrity"
that disables the feature introduced by the failing commit.
What do you think?
