The entropy estimator is calculated in terms of 1/8 bits, which means there are various constants where things are shifted by 3. Move these into our pool info enum with the other relevant constants. While we're at it, move an English assertion about sizes into a proper BUILD_BUG_ON so that the compiler can ensure this invariant.

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.
