As Ted already mentioned, I was expecting the string contents to actually
get added somewhere. Is the idea that it's already been added via the
add_device_randomness(command_line) call, and you just want to explicitly
credit those bytes? If so, that deserves a comment, and I think it should
likely not use 8 bits per character, as that's not how many bits are
possible for an alphanumeric string character; I would expect 6 bits (~32
standard letter/number) -- this likely needs fixing in the fdt patch too.

There's some refactoring in this patch unrelated to the seed logic. Can
you split that out? (I think these changes are good.)

Unrelated note: whoa this is based on linux-next which has a massive
change to the boot command line handling and appears to be doing some
bad things. I need to go find that thread...

Can you pull this out of line and write a new static help that does all
of the rng stuff here? Basically from rand_initialize() through
boot_init_stack_canary(), so it's all in one place and not "open coded"
in start_kernel(). (And then, actually, you don't need a separate
credit_trusted_entropy() function at all -- just call
credit_entropy_bits() directly there (and add a comment about the
command line already getting added).
