arm64: kexec_file: Avoid temp buffer for RNG seed
After using get_random_bytes(), you want to wipe the buffer afterward so the seed remains secret. In this case, we can eliminate the temporary buffer entirely. fdt_setprop_placeholder() returns a pointer to the property value buffer, allowing us to put the random data directly in there without using a temporary buffer at all. Faster and less stack all in one.
