Re: Remove PRNG from Linux Kernel

I've done performance testing, and I can generate 50 kilobytes of
random data in 6.9 seconds using the TMP2 hardware. This is adequate.

The boot-up state of my embedded device is very predictable, and so I
don't want any mathematical algorithms for psudeo-randomness present
on my device. I am cutting them all out.

I don't want to use the TPM2 to feed entropy into the Linux kernel's
PRNG. Instead I wish to remove the PRNG from the kernel and replace it
with a direct call to the TPM2 chip. Performance is not an issue here.
