[PATCH 2/5] efi/random: Increase size of firmware supplied randomness

From: Ard Biesheuvel
Date: Fri Aug 25 2017 - 12:00:34 EST


The crng code requires at least 64 bytes (2 * CHACHA20_BLOCK_SIZE)
to complete the fast boot-time init, so provide that many bytes
when invoking UEFI protocols to seed the entropy pool. Also, add
a notice so we can tell from the boot log when the seeding actually
took place.
