The Secure Launch MLE environment uses PCRs that are only accessible from
the DRTM locality 2. By default the TPM drivers always initialize the
locality to 0. When a Secure Launch is in progress, initialize the
locality to 2.

This looks correct in itself, but looking at the CRB driver code I don't
think locality support is actually implemented. Are there any SL systems
using CRB?

We have never seen a system that supports CRB other than some firmware TPMs that don't work with TXT in the first place. CRB is unexplored territory at this point.
