Subject: [PATCH 0/7] first in overall series of rng code house cleaning

The RNG has been through a lot of changes over the years, and the code
could use a bit of house cleaning. This is the first series in what I
anticipate will be a few of these. The goal is to have each component of
it clearly analyzable for what it is, which should make the job of
analyzing its security as well as overall maintenance easier.

Jason A. Donenfeld (7):
  random: cleanup poolinfo abstraction
  random: cleanup integer types
  random: remove incomplete last_data logic
  random: remove unused reserved argument
  random: rather than entropy_store abstraction, use global
  random: remove unused OUTPUT_POOL constants
  random: de-duplicate INPUT_POOL constants
