Depending on the policy, the measurement list could be exactly the
same from one boot to the next.  This test simply checks that the
first N number of measurements are the same.  It doesn't verify that
there are additional measurements, nor does it check that there is an
additional "boot_aggregate" after the kexec.  At minimum the test
should verify the existence of multiple "boot_aggregate" values in the
measurement list.

A more complete test would walk the measurement list, re-calculating
the PCR digests, and then compare the recalculated PCRS against the
TPM PCRs.  If all the measurements were properly carried across the
kexec, the PCR digests should match.
