Right now we unconditionally pass a 'kaslr-seed' property to the kernel if the DTB we ended up in EFI includes the entry. However the kernel EFI stub completely ignores it and only relies on EFI_RNG_PROTOCOL. So let's get rid of it unconditionally since it would mess up the (upcoming) DTB TPM measuring as well.

Note that the EFI stub itself does not consume the DTB /chosen entry for its own randomness needs (i.e., the randomization of the physical placement of the kernel, which also affects low order virtual placement [bits 16-20]), and will blindly overwrite the seed with whatever the EFI_RNG_PROTOCOL returns.
