Alternatively the kernel could send us an event when it is ready, and we can have a service waiting for this, which other services can order against. Simply blocking in the kernel would be simpler though, if we can pull it off without breaking things...
Things that will break after implementing this are broken already anyway. Getting randomness before the generator is properly initialized makes no sense.
