Any data that comes from outside during the boot process, be it some NVRAM 
location, the /var/lib...seed file for /dev/random or other approaches are 
viewed by a number of folks to have zero bits of entropy.

I.e. this data is nice for stirring the pool, but is not considered to help 
our entropy problem.
