Subject: [PATCH v4 3/3] m68k: generate new RNG seed on reboot

Rather than rebooting into a system with no entropy, regenerate the RNG
seed before rebooting, so that the new system has a fresh seed.

Fixes: a1ee38ab1a75 ("m68k: virt: Use RNG seed from bootinfo block")
Signed-off-by: Jason A. Donenfeld <Jason@...c4.com>
