Merge tag 'random_for_linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tytso/random

Pull random updates from Ted Ts'o:
 "Some changes to trust cpu-based hwrng (such as RDRAND) for
  initializing hashed pointers and (optionally, controlled by a config
  option) to initialize the CRNG to avoid boot hangs"

* tag 'random_for_linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tytso/random:
  random: Make crng state queryable
  random: remove preempt disabled region
  random: add a config option to trust the CPU's hwrng
  vsprintf: Add command line option debug_boot_weak_hash
  vsprintf: Use hw RNG for ptr_key
  random: Return nbytes filled from hw RNG
  random: Fix whitespace pre random-bytes work

+	Assume that CPU manufacturer (e.g., Intel or AMD for RDSEED or
+	RDRAND, IBM for the S390 and Power PC architectures) is trustworthy
+	for the purposes of initializing Linux's CRNG.  Since this is not
+	something that can be independently audited, this amounts to trusting

+	has not installed a hidden back door to compromise the CPU's
+	random number generation facilities.
