Providing the random seed to firmware was tied to the fact that the

it turns out the BCM43752 device also needs the random seed in order
to get firmware running. Suspect it is simply tied to the firmware
branch used for the device. Introducing a mechanism to allow setting
it for a device through the device table.

Not exactly what I meant by using my patch "as is". I would have kept the two patches separate, but it is not a deal breaker for me.
