Comment (by Sebastian):

 Yup, in the past cpu_init didn't do very much so this wasn't a problem,
 but now we have to think a second about whether we should just call it
 always, no matter if we're a relay or not, if maybe we should just call it
 frequently as it looks mostly idempotent with the possible exception of
 crypto_seed_weak_rng which I haven't looked at, or if we need to do a
 bigger refactoring. My intuition would be to just call this on startup
 independent of whether we're a relay or not.
