Subject: [BUG] random: crash via credit_entropy_bits
hi,
when printing out some early acpi messages I hit bug in
work queue code.. the system_wq is not initialized at
the time acpi_early_init is called and causes irq storm
(I assume) that makes credit_entropy_bits call schedule_work
and crash:

patch below prevents that.. however I'm not sure this is the
correct fix, just allows me to continue the acpi debug ;-)
thanks,
