 I know qemu has some entropy forwarding stuff and I wonder if that could be used in the cloud so instances have enough entropy to fix this

e.g.

              -object rng-random,id=id,filename=/dev/random
                     Creates a random number generator backend which obtains entropy from a device on the host. The id parameter is a unique ID that will be used to reference this entropy backend from the virtio-rng device. The filename parameter specifies which file to ob‐
                     tain entropy from and if omitted defaults to /dev/urandom.

I think openstack has support for that, and this maybe should be toggled on? Might be worth checking with IS and security.
