  random: Make crng state queryable (2018-08-02 17:33:06 -0400)

----------------------------------------------------------------
Some changes to trust cpu-based hwrng (such as RDRAND) for
initializing hashed pointers and (optionally, controlled by a config
option) to initialize the CRNG to avoid boot hangs.

      random: remove preempt disabled region

Jason A. Donenfeld (1):
