Hey Kees,

This series is targetting x86, which typically has RDRAND/RDSEED
instructions.  Are you referring to other arches?  Older x86?  Also,
isn't this the same requirement for base address KASLR?

Don't get me wrong, I want more diverse entropy sources available
earlier in the boot process as well. :-)  I'm just wondering what's
different about this series vs base address KASLR wrt early entropy
sources.

thx,

Jason.
