Subject: [PATCH net-next 1/2] net: introduce generic net_random_N helper

We have implemented the same function over and over, so introduce a
generic helper net_random_N() that unifies these implementations.
It internally used net_random() which eventually resolves to
prandom_u32(). Explicit include of reciprocal_div.h is not necessary.
