This is interesting and great thing for us because we can test fully
the tpm_crb part without requiring NVS tweaks. And NVS tweak can then
be built on top of working code.

So far I've seen only AMD fTPM's that report NVS regions. This is
important thing to have in the commit message.

I'll give a detailed review later on.
