The initial HMAC session feature added TPM bus encryption and/or integrity
protection to various in-kernel TPM operations. This can cause performance
bottlenecks with IMA, as it heavily utilizes PCR extend operations.

In order to mitigate this performance issue, introduce a kernel
command-line parameter to the TPM driver for disabling the integrity
protection for PCR extend operations (i.e. TPM2_PCR_Extend).

The module_param variable documentation needs to be updated to reflect the
actual module_param variable 'disable_pcr_integrity'.

Otherwise,

'disable_pcr_integrity' doesn't match the documentation.
