File avoid-random-seed-cycle.patch of Package systemd

Rather than ordering systemd-random-seed-load.service after local-fs.target,
start it by path-activation.

We need write access to the seed, so we order the path unit after
remount-rootfs.service (in case /var is on the root fs).

A better solution might be to introduce PathIsWritable=, but that is not
necessary in order to solve the problem, and I don't know of any other
usecases for it.

This is my second attempt at solving this problem. The first one had
some issues as pointed out by Frederic and Michael.
