We do not want to revert those commits. I think the right solution is to enabled: CONFIG_CRYPTO_DEV_VIRTIO=y CONFIG_PCI=y CONFIG_PCI_HOST_GENERIC=y in the qemuarm64 machine's kernel defconfig and this will then allow the host entropy to pass through to the guest. This is how all the other qemu machines are working, its just not working on qemuarm64 due to the PCI bus being disabled currently (the device is a PCI virtio driver). We therefore need to give Bruce the right changes to the kernel config fragments to enable the above options. I think the options you mentioned are automatically enabled if the PCI bus and host generic options are enabled.
