efi: random: reduce seed size to 32 bytes

commit 161a438d

 upstream.

We no longer need at least 64 bytes of random seed to permit the early
crng init to complete. The RNG is now based on Blake2s, so reduce the
EFI seed size to the Blake2s hash size, which is sufficient for our
purposes.

While at it, drop the READ_ONCE(), which was supposed to prevent size
from being evaluated after seed was unmapped. However, this cannot
actually happen, so READ_ONCE() is unnecessary here.
