Thanks (please add that info to the cover letter in the future).

Why is TD RTMR based measured boot not supported in Config-A?

I'm trying to understand why we need Config-B.  Having two variants
with completely different initialization code paths (with/without PEI)
doesn't look like a good plan to me.  I'd rather support everything in
Config-A if possible.

take care,
