Subject: [PATCH REPOST] random: Add a spinlock_t to struct batched_entropy
The per-CPU variable batched_entropy_uXX is protected by get_cpu_var().
This is just a preempt_disable() which protects against concurrent
access from process context on the local CPU. It does not protect
against users on the same CPU from another context. It is possible that
a preemptible context reads slot 0 and then an interrupt occurs and the
same value is read again from hard or soft IRQ context.
The above scenario is confirmed by lockdep if we add a spinlock:

Add a spinlock_t to the batched_entropy data structure and acquire the
lock while accessing it. Acquire the lock with disabled interrupts
because this function may be used from interrupt context.
Remove the batched_entropy_reset_lock lock. Now that we have a lock for
the data structure, we can access it from a remote CPU.
