From 5acd35487dc911541672b3ffc322851769c32a56 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Jason A. Donenfeld" Date: Tue, 1 Mar 2022 20:03:49 +0100 Subject: random: replace custom notifier chain with standard one We previously rolled our own randomness readiness notifier, which only has two users in the whole kernel. Replace this with a more standard atomic notifier block that serves the same purpose with less code. Also unexport the symbols, because no modules use it, only unconditional builtins. The only drawback is that it's possible for a notification handler returning the "stop" code to prevent further processing, but given that there are only two users, and that we're unexporting this anyway, that doesn't seem like a significant drawback for the simplification we receive here.
