Just as a follow-up on this issue, if someone else would stumbled upon the same:

I've built cyclone5 machine off the master and it was 100% operable.
Then I looked at the i.MX8M configuration and found out that openssl
recipe was overlaid for me with the option --with-rand-seed=devrandom,
which effectively cause this erratic behavior. Changing the compile
option to --with-rand-seed=os,devrandom made an SSHD fully operable
again, so indeed this is the right option to use for devices which are
not properly seeding /dev/urandom.

Mikko/Adrian, thank a lot for your advises here in the direction to look into!
