Taking the minimum is wrong, if the bootloader or EFI stub is actually passing on a bunch of bytes that it expects the kernel to hash itself.
We still need some kind of limit, just so things don't explode if seed->size is bogus.
Ideally, a bootloader will hash it for us, but STUB won't do that, so we should map all the bytes. Also, all those bytes must be zeroed out after use to preserve forward secrecy.
