Subject: [PATCH v2] m68k: virt: use RNG seed from bootinfo block

Other virt VMs can pass RNG seeds via the "rng-seed" device tree
property or via UEFI, but m68k doesn't have either. Instead it has its
own bootinfo protocol. So this commit adds support for receiving a RNG
seed from it, which will be used at the earliest possible time in boot,
just like device tree.
