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

Pull randomness fixes from Ted Ts'o:
 "Improve performance by using a lockless update mechanism suggested by
  Linus, and make sure we refresh per-CPU entropy returned get_random_*
  as soon as the CRNG is initialized"

* tag 'random_for_linus_stable' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tytso/random:
  random: invalidate batched entropy after crng init
  random: use lockless method of accessing and updating f->reg_idx
