Title:
  Backport jitter entroy changes?

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  One of our Ubuntu Core 16 devices failed to boot after a refresh
  recently [0]. After some debugging it turns out that it hangs in early
  boot because there is not enough entropy available. Snapd is using
  entropy to init it's CRNG and a change in snapd broke the boot.
  However while debugging/fixing this issue I was wondering if it would
  be possible to backport the new jitter entropy patches from kernel 5.4
  [1] to the older LTS kernels.

  Thanks,
   Michael
