2016-09-11Revert "hwrand.pl,hwrand.py: forward randomness"Peter Wu1-8/+0
This reverts commit 7851407fe89228897d01278bb1929f817821a701. Hardware randomness is automatically added to the pools, these scripts are not really needed. The original issue that made the boot hang was fixed in Linux v4.7-12388-g0cbbc422.

Continuously fills the entropy pool from /dev/hwrng, crediting 4 bits of entropy per byte. Hopefully speeds up the provisioning of a test VM that invokes pacman-key --init... Authored by me, posted on https://unix.stackexchange.com/a/302338/8250
