Subject: [PATCH 4.14 029/237] random: Dont wake crng_init_wait when crng_init == 1

From: Andy Lutomirski <luto@...nel.org>

commit 4c8d062186d9923c09488716b2fb1b829b5b8006 upstream.

crng_init_wait is only used to wayt for crng_init to be set to 2, so
there's no point to waking it when crng_init is set to 1.  Remove the
unnecessary wake_up_interruptible() call.
