Re: [PATCH v2 1/4] random: use computational hash for entropy extraction

Hey Dominik,

I just noticed that we use RDSEED in crng_reseed(). I would think we
could remove that and stick to having RDSEED used in extract entropy
as you suggested. I'm now pretty sure the older decision boiled down
to the 10 bytes vs 5 minutes thing, as discussed before. So please
feel free to send a patch doing just this.
