Merge Request Required Information

Summary of Changes

JIRA: https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-65725

Since the pixiefail CVE fix, the network stack requires a random number generator. In case there is no hardware random number generator available, have the Platform Boot Manager install a pseudo RNG to ensure the network can be used.
