commit f3eac426657d985b97c92fa5f7ae1d43f04721f3 upstream. The platform's RNG must be available before random_init() in order to be useful for initial seeding, which in turn means that it needs to be called from setup_arch(), rather than from an init call. Complicating things, however, is that POWER8 systems need some per-cpu state and kmalloc, which isn't available at this stage. So we split things up into an early phase and a later opportunistic phase. This commit also removes some noisy log messages that don't add much.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
