Due to what is probably a simple typo that got overlooked in the TPM spec, the manufacturer identifier assigned to IBM ended up with a lowercase 'D' character in what was supposed to be a simple ASCII to hexadecimal mapping. This change compensates for that by trimming the
id:
portion of the TPMManufacturer string, then converting the remainder to a hex string.By doing this,
id:49424d00
andid:49424D00
will effectively be the same, without changing the existing static strings from the spec.Resolves #545, where more info is available.
