Subject: [PATCH 0/2 v2] Init the hashed pointer from a worker.

Hi,

this mini series is a follow up to 
	https://lore.kernel.org/all/YuOf6qu453dOkR+S@linutronix.de/

v1…v2:
   - Remove the static_branch_likely() as suggested by Petr Mladek.
   - Jason wasn't onboard with fiddling in random core to get the job
     done. Instead a worker is scheduled from an initcall and
     get_random_bytes_wait() is used to get the date once it is
     available.
