This patch is missing some context information, specifically which performance
issue does exist in the Kernel (with some quantification), and how is it addressed
here.
This function introduced with this patch already exist in the Kernel [1], and the
implementation does differ from Kernel one. Specifically, this patch lowers the
number of test samples that are run to decide whether the entropy generated by
TRNG is sufficiently random: it reduces the monobit count range, poker test limits,
and number or runs for consecutive 0's and 1's.
Considering the fact that after TRNG is initialized - JDKEK, TDKEK and TDSK are
preloaded from the RNG and are locked until the next PoR, Kernel will not
re-initialize the TRNG (in fact, there is a check that is done in the Kernel not to
touch RNG if it is already initialized [2]), and this would leave the Crypto facilities
running in the Kernel to use entropy model that is defined here. In this case, at
least a justification of this change should be made clear - e.g. significant speed
improvement over reduced entropy (with quantifiable numbers).
In addition, with those new parameter set, would the RNG pass FIPS 140-2 test?

Why does those values are lowered with respect to what is provided by
default? A bit more explanation on why those primes are chosen here
would be good to have, together with documenting default values (so
people can compare).
