[PATCH v4 22/22] arm64: efi: invoke EFI_RNG_PROTOCOL to supply KASLR randomness

Since arm64 does not use a decompressor that supplies an execution
environment where it is feasible to some extent to provide a source of
randomness, the arm64 KASLR kernel depends on the bootloader to supply
some random bits in the /chosen/kaslr-seed DT property upon kernel entry.

On UEFI systems, we can use the EFI_RNG_PROTOCOL, if supplied, to obtain
some random bits. At the same time, use it to randomize the offset of the
kernel Image in physical memory.

 	  It is the bootloader's job to provide entropy, by passing a
 	  random u64 value in /chosen/kaslr-seed at kernel entry.
 
+	  When booting via the UEFI stub, it will invoke the firmware's
+	  EFI_RNG_PROTOCOL implementation (if available) to supply entropy
+	  to the kernel proper. In addition, it will randomise the physical
+	  location of the kernel Image as well.

 	  If unsure, say N.
