High load average in an out of the box and updated RPI3B

[Eduardo Minguez Perez]

Freshly installed Fedora IoT on a RPI3B and the load average is ~4 and rngd is using a lot
of CPU. I've disabled rngd but the load average is still ~4.

I've reported it via twitter https://twitter.com/FedoraIoT/status/1143448338366439425
and it seems there is a known issue upstream. Can you please provide more info/links?

Thanks!

It's a known issue [1], reported and discussed on the Fedora Arm
mailing list as well. It's actually mostly spurious, having just
reviewed the upstream github issue again it looks like there's a fix
on it's way to 5.3, I'll take a look and see if it's back portable to
other kernels when I get a moment.
