      Pull randomness updates from Ted Ts'o:
       "Cleanups and bug fixes to /dev/random, add a new getrandom(2) system
        call, which is a superset of OpenBSD's getentropy(2) call, for use
        with userspace crypto libraries such as LibreSSL.
      
        Also add the ability to have a kernel thread to pull entropy from
        hardware rng devices into /dev/random"
      
      * tag 'random_for_linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tytso/random:
        hwrng: Pass entropy to add_hwgenerator_randomness() in bits, not bytes
        random: limit the contribution of the hw rng to at most half
        random: introduce getrandom(2) system call
        hw_random: fix sparse warning (NULL vs 0 for pointer)
        random: use registers from interrupted code for CPU's w/o a cycle counter
        hwrng: add per-device entropy derating
        hwrng: create filler thread
        random: add_hwgenerator_randomness() for feeding entropy from devices
        random: use an improved fast_mix() function
        random: clean up interrupt entropy accounting for archs w/o cycle counters
        random: only update the last_pulled time if we actually transferred entropy
        random: remove unneeded hash of a portion of the entropy pool
        random: always update the entropy pool under the spinlock

      Two ipv6_table_template[] additions overlap, so the index
      of the ipv6_table[x] assignments needed to be adjusted.
      
      In the drivers/net/Makefile case, we've gotten rid of the
      garbage whereby we had to list every single USB networking
      driver in the top-level Makefile, there is just one
      "USB_NETWORKING" that guards everything.
