The device would not have decrypted those? As it only has two keys,
one for each MSB of the SPI.

Except for a narrow window during rotation, where a key for generation
N is decrypted and queued to the host, then a rotation happens, so that
the host updates its valid keys to { N+1, N+2 }. These will now get
dropped. That is not strictly necessary.

Where does the spec state this?

I know this generation bit is present in the Google PSP
implementation, I'm just right now drawing a blank as to its exact
purpose -- and whether the above explanation matches that.
