## During early boot, the page allocator has predictable FIFO behavior for physical pages.
## Limits some data exfiltration and ROP attacks that rely on inferring sensitive data location.

## The RDRAND CPU (RNG) instructions are proprietary and closed-source.
## Numerous implementations of RDRAND have a long history of being defective.
## The RNG seed passed by the bootloader could also potentially be tampered.
## Maximising the entropy pool at boot is desirable for all cryptographic operations.
## These settings ensure additional entropy is obtained from other sources to initialise the RNG.
