efi/tpm: Verify event log header before parsing
It is possible that the first event in the event log is not actually a log header at all, but rather a normal event. This leads to the cast in __calc_tpm2_event_size being an invalid conversion, which means that the values read are effectively garbage. Depending on the first event's contents, this leads either to apparently normal behaviour, a crash or a freeze. While this behaviour of the firmware is not in accordance with the TCG Client EFI Specification, this happens on a Dell Precision 5510 with the TPM enabled but hidden from the OS ("TPM On" disabled, state otherwise untouched). The EFI firmware claims that the TPM is present and active and that it supports the TCG 2.0 event log format. Fortunately, this can be worked around by simply checking the header of the first event and the event log header signature itself. Commit b4f1874c ("tpm: check event log version before reading final events") addressed a similar issue also found on Dell models.
