That's not a flaw in Rpi, that's a software bug in Linux/systemd.

I have no idea how that's systemd's fault that the hardware doesn't have good entropy available early on.

It has a hardware RNG.

then presumably support for that simply needs adding to the kernel?

Just needs a modprobe invocation early enough.

Presumably if it's not directly glued to the random pool, it'll also need hwrngd or similar?

Either way it's a RasPi platform integration issue; not a problem with Linux or systemd.
