x86: efi/random: Invoke EFI_RNG_PROTOCOL to seed the UEFI RNG table
Invoke the EFI_RNG_PROTOCOL protocol in the context of the x86 EFI stub, same as is done on arm/arm64 since commit 568bc4e ("efi/arm*/libstub: Invoke EFI_RNG_PROTOCOL to seed the UEFI RNG table"). Within the stub, a Linux-specific RNG seed UEFI config table will be seeded. The EFI routines in the core kernel will pick that up later, yet still early during boot, to seed the kernel entropy pool. If CONFIG_RANDOM_TRUST_BOOTLOADER, entropy is credited for this seed. Signed-off-by: Dominik Brodowski <linux@dominikbrodowski.net> Signed-off-by: Ard Biesheuvel <ardb@kernel.org>
