Why was this needed? Can CAP_PCRS return completely unallocated banks?

Kind of out-of-context for the rest of the changes.

Should this be a bug fix of its own because it looks like as this is a
bug fix for existing code, and not a new feature? Just asking because
I don't yet fully understand this change.

Anyway, I believe that you can streamline this by:

/* Check that at least some of the PCRs have been allocated. This is
 * required because CAP_PCRS ...
 */
if (memchr_inv(pcr_selection.pcr_select, 0, pcr_selection.size_of_select))
	nr_allocated_banks++;

[yeah, comment would be awesome about CAP_PCRS. Did not finish up the
comment because I don't know the answer]

In addition, it would be consistent to call the local variable also
nr_allocated_banks (not nr_alloc_banks).
