[PATCH RESEND v7 2/3] fdt: add support for rng-seed
From: Hsin-Yi Wang
Date: Thu Aug 08 2019 - 13:39:29 EST
Introducing a chosen node, rng-seed, which is an entropy that can be
passed to kernel called very early to increase initial device
randomness. Bootloader should provide this entropy and the value is
read from /chosen/rng-seed in DT.
