Subject: [PATCH 3.18 10/31] x86/kaslr: Fix incorrect i8254 outb() parameters

3.18-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Daniel Drake <drake@...lessm.com>

commit 7e6fc2f50a3197d0e82d1c0e86282976c9e6c8a4 upstream.

The outb() function takes parameters value and port, in that order.  Fix
the parameters used in the kalsr i8254 fallback code.

Fixes: 5bfce5ef55cb ("x86, kaslr: Provide randomness functions")
