so this one is rather pointless. You are not protecting the RPA, you are protecting the NRPA. Since the NRPA is non-resolvable, it has not cryptographic meaning whatsoever. Even a bad random number is good here. So lets scrap this one.

Frankly if you are doing this here anyway, then also waiting for random number seeding (when it is a LE controller) during HCI init is plenty. A powered down controller will not do any cryptographic operations.
I mean we can even use HCI LE Rand function to feed the RNG even further. Actually checking if enough random bytes are available, if not, call HCI LE Rand, seed it, repeat until enough randomness is available.

Marcel
