I don't object to this in principle, but there is a cost: seeding the entropy pool will add a noticeable startup delay (sometimes 5-10 seconds) on some platforms. Is this...

Also try using `ipxe.efi` instead of `snponly.efi`.

It needs a substantial cleanup before being mergeable. Also, rather than argue over which digest algorithm commands should exist, we should be able to use whichever digests are compiled in...

This patch appears to destroy the generic reset mechanism that works on a variety of Intel NICs (including workarounds for specific models), and replaces it with a mechanism that works...

@dagmcr I took a quick look around this issue. The Linux driver seems to ignore `STATUS.PF_RST_DONE`, but does poll for `EEC.AUTO_RD`. It's very plausible that `STATUS.PF_RST_DONE` will always be set...
