Hmmm. My TPM2 "knowledge" is insufficient to judge and/or explain these
warnings.

Jiewen, Marc-André, can you help with this perhaps?

"PcdTcgPhysicalPresenceInterfaceVer" is used by
SmmTcg2PhysicalPresenceLib, Tcg2ConfigDxe, and Tcg2Smm. None of those
are inclued in either OvmfPkg or ArmVirtPkg, so I think
"PcdTcgPhysicalPresenceInterfaceVer" should be dropped.

... Small correction: Tcg2ConfigDxe is included for TPM2_CONFIG_ENABLE.
For me, TPM2_CONFIG_ENABLE is uncharted (and most likely: broken)
territory. We added it in commit 3103389043bd because Stefan Berger
really wanted it -- I insisted it be sequestered with a dedicated build
flag (for "containing the damage"), and that's how we ended up with
TPM2_CONFIG_ENABLE.

Therefore, if we add PcdTcgPhysicalPresenceInterfaceVer *only* when
TPM2_CONFIG_ENABLE is TRUE, I'm fine. (I basically don't care about
TPM2_CONFIG_ENABLE==TRUE -- I wanted the dedicated flag so I can
*afford* not caring about those modules.)


Regarding "PcdTpm2AcpiTableRev": it is *consumed* by Tcg2Dxe too, so we
might want to set it, if we're not pleased with the default. But, as far
as I understand, we still only need it to be under [PcdsDynamicHii] if
we want to configure it through HII (usually: the display browser),
which is again not the case unless we have TPM2_CONFIG_ENABLE.

So in the end, I'd like to see both PCDs either removed, or made
dependent on TPM2_CONFIG_ENABLE == TRUE.

Thanks!
Laszlo
