Honestly I have no idea what I'm targeting. The hash function touches
lib/. The secure_seq stuff touches net/. The rng stuff touches
random.c. Shall this be for net-next? For lib-next (doesn't exist)?
For tytso-next? Since a lot of feedback has come from netdev people, I
suspect net-next is the correct answer. In that case, I'll ask Ted for
his sign-off to touch random.c, and then we'll get this queued up in
net-next. Please correct me if this doesn't actually resemble how
things work around here...
