Pull random number generator fixes from Jason Donenfeld:
"For this week, we have:
- A fix to make more frequent use of hwgenerator randomness, from
Dominik.
- More cleanups to the boot initialization sequence, from Dominik.
- A fix for an old shortcoming with the ZAP ioctl, from me.
- A workaround for a still unfixed Clang CFI/FullLTO compiler bug,
from me. On one hand, it's a bummer to commit workarounds for
experimental compiler features that have bugs. But on the other, I
think this actually improves the code somewhat, independent of the
bug. So a win-win"

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.
