+ * systemd-cryptenroll now allows TPM2 enrollment using only a TPM2
+ public key (in TPM2B_PUBLIC format) – without access to the TPM2

* systemd-cryptsetup is now installed in /usr/bin/ and is no longer an
internal-only executable.
* The TPM2 Storage Root Key will now be set up, if not already present,
- by a new systemd-tpm2-setup.service early boot service. The SRK will be
