Currently, we reseed when random bytes are requested, if the current
seed is too old. Since random bytes can be requested from all contexts,
including hard IRQ, this means sometimes we wind up adding a bit of
latency to hard IRQ. This was so much of a problem on s390x that now
s390x just doesn't provide its architectural RNG from hard IRQ context,
so we miss out in that case.
Instead, let's just schedule a persistent delayed work, so that the
reseeding and potentially expensive operations will always happen from
process context, reducing unexpected latencies from hard IRQ.
This also has the nice effect of accumulating a transcript of random
inputs over time, since it means that we amass more input values. And it
should make future vDSO integration a bit easier.
