Will do in v3. Basically the TPM 2 code has been 'fixed' to reflect the 
pcclient profile more closely and due to the change in PCRs that belong 
to the 'TCB group' the response of the TPM2_Pcrread command now returns 
a slightly different value for the pcrUpdateCounter value, which 
unfortunately breaks the test cases. Leaving the TPM 2 as it was wasn't 
a long-term option.
