Not really.  The default for varmfs is AUTO, which mounts a memory file
system on /var if, after mounting all "early" file systems, /var is not
writeable.

That shouldn't make any difference.  Our /dev/random never blocks once
it's seeded, and reading 4096 bytes won't take noticeably longer than
reading 2048 bytes.  But it should already be unblocked by then - this
is on shutdown, right?
