9.99.93 kernel and still entropy hangs

[Riccardo Mottola <riccardo.mottola%libero.it@localhost>]

Hello,

entropy for me is still brittle.
Does "consolidating" entropy survive a reboot?
I still get stalls. The first thing was install a new kernel.. and again
I got the dreaded not enough entropy.

[ 10879.215507] entropy: pid 6895 (python3.9) blocking due to lack of
entropy


I think I have read on the mailing list that for older CPUs not
supporting the expected randomness some fallback was supposed.
Saving and consolidating isn't just good enough
