Merge tag 'random-5.18-rc1-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/crng/random

Pull random number generator fixes from Jason Donenfeld:

- If a hardware random number generator passes a sufficiently large
chunk of entropy to random.c during early boot, we now skip the
"fast_init" business and let it initialize the RNG.

This makes CONFIG_RANDOM_TRUST_BOOTLOADER=y actually useful.

- We already have the command line `random.trust_cpu=0/1` option for
RDRAND, which let distros enable CONFIG_RANDOM_TRUST_CPU=y while
placating concerns of more paranoid users.

Now we add `random.trust_bootloader=0/1` so that distros can
similarly enable CONFIG_RANDOM_TRUST_BOOTLOADER=y.

- Re-add a comment that got removed by accident in the recent revert.

- Add the spec-compliant ACPI CID for vmgenid, which Microsoft added to
the vmgenid spec at Ard's request during earlier review.

- Restore build-time randomness via the latent entropy plugin, which
was lost when we transitioned to using a hash function.
