+dtb-kaslr-seed
+ Set ``on``/``off`` to pass a random seed via the guest dtb
+ kaslr-seed node (in both "/chosen" and /secure-chosen) to use
+ for features like address space randomisation. The default is
+ ``on``. You will want to disable it if your trusted boot chain will
+ verify the DTB it is passed. It would be the responsibility of the
+ firmware to come up with a seed and pass it on if it wants to.
