Comment(by gnu):

 Rebooted and verified that "hexdump /dev/random" does not stall after rngd
 is running on reboot.  In fact, it wakes up rngd periodically to dump more
 randomness in, as long as you keep running the hexdump; and when you stop
 it, rngd goes back to snoozing (taking 212k resident ram, of which only
 48k is dirty and thus can't be discarded under memory pressure).
