  random: reorder READ_ONCE() in get_random_uXX (2017-07-15 12:33:22 -0400)

n.b.  There is a trivial merge conflict with include/linux/random.h
where branches added lines at the same insertion point.

----------------------------------------------------------------
Add wait_for_random_bytes() and get_random_*_wait() functions so that
callers can more safely get random bytes if they can block until the
CRNG is initialized.

Also print a warning if get_random_*() is called before the CRNG is
initialized.  By default, only one single-line warning will be printed
per boot.  If CONFIG_WARN_ALL_UNSEEDED_RANDOM is defined, then a
warning will be printed for each function which tries to get random
bytes before the CRNG is initialized.  This can get spammy for certain
architecture types, so it is not enabled by default.

----------------------------------------------------------------
Jason A. Donenfeld (10):
      random: silence compiler warnings and fix race
      random: add wait_for_random_bytes() API
      random: add get_random_{bytes,u32,u64,int,long,once}_wait family
      cifs: use get_random_u32 for 32-bit lock random
      iscsi: ensure RNG is seeded before use
      ceph: ensure RNG is seeded before using
      rhashtable: use get_random_u32 for hash_rnd
      net/neighbor: use get_random_u32 for 32-bit hash random
      net/route: use get_random_int for random counter
      random: warn when kernel uses unseeded randomness

Sebastian Andrzej Siewior (1):
      random: reorder READ_ONCE() in get_random_uXX

Theodore Ts'o (1):
      random: suppress spammy warnings about unseeded randomness
