Along the lines of attached patch.

Subject: [PATCH] KEYS: trusted: Extend TPMKey ASN.1 definition with
 'parentName'

Extend TPMKey ASN.1 definition [1] with an optional 'parentName' attribute
containing TPMT_HA blob for the parent. Encode this attribute for the
generated TPM keys, which allows skipping TPM2_ReadPublic when unsealing
the key.
