hwrng: core - move add_early_randomness() out of rng_mutex
add_early_randomness() is called every time a new rng backend is added and every time it is set as the current rng provider. add_early_randomness() is called from functions locking rng_mutex, and if it hangs all the hw_random framework hangs: we can't read sysfs, add or remove a backend. This patch move add_early_randomness() out of the rng_mutex zone. It only needs the reading_mutex.
