No, this is not the solution, if we take seriously not only getrandom 
hangs, but also urandom warnings. In some setups (root on LUKS is one of 
them) they happen early in the initramfs. Therefore "restoring" entropy 
from the previous boot by a script that runs from the main system is too 
late. That's why it is suggested to load at least a part of the random 
seed in the boot loader, and that has not been commonly implemented.
