Hi Roberto,

> chip->allocated_banks contains the list of TPM algorithm IDs of allocated

> However, if there is no mapping between TPM algorithm ID and crypto ID, the
> crypto_id field in chip->allocated_banks remains set to zero (the array is
> allocated and initialized with kcalloc() in tpm2_get_pcr_allocation()).
> Zero should not be used as value for unknown mappings, as it is a valid
> crypto ID (HASH_ALGO_MD4).

> This patch initializes crypto_id to HASH_ALGO__LAST.

Make sense.
