Subject: [PATCH] boot: remove random-seed-mode
Now that the random seed is used on virtualized systems, there's no
point in having a random-seed-mode toggle switch. Let's just always
require it now, with the existing logic already being there to allow not
having it if EFI itself has an RNG. In other words, the logic for this
can now be automatic.
(cherry picked from commit 47b3e96647e18e8ca219c4792ab769344eea11bb)
