+1 to activate the flag.
I was already wondering why the random number generator on my Wandboard
was not working.

The three i.MX6 boards with misc_init_r() don's set serial#:

board/congatec/cgtqmx6eval/cgtqmx6eval.c:755:int misc_init_r(void)
board/toradex/apalis_imx6/apalis_imx6.c:786:int misc_init_r(void)
board/toradex/colibri_imx6/colibri_imx6.c:679:int misc_init_r(void)

git grep -n 'serial#' | grep mx6

finds nothing.

Best regards
