Not yet. Actually, I've posted some other change requests in the repo
[1]  but got no feedback. Not nice from me but I didn't post any other
changes since.
In the mean time, I think Linux kernel should be ready for this before
fTPM implementation is fixed.
Note that U-Boot already integrate this login identifier change, see [2].
