Check directly, no, but your patch already makes the assumption that
mseccfg.SSEED=1 if zkr is present in the device tree.  Which is fine as long
as that contract is documented somewhere (presumably, the device tree
binding; some of the language in the RVA22U64 profile spec implies USEED=0,
but linux does not require profiles and they don't exist for rv32).

If we want U-mode behavior to be discoverable and/or predictable, we have
three good options:

Simplest: Document that we expect USEED=0 or USEED=1.  Set zkr appropriately
in hwprobe.

Most flexible: Work with the SBI people to add a SBI_EXT_FWFEATURE for USEED,
as well as defining the value on kernel entry.  Expose this via hwprobe and
a new prctl.

Most robust: Add an illegal instruction handler for CSR_SEED that grabs 16
bits from the kernel entropy pool.  Expose zkr in hwprobe unconditionally.
