Merge tag 'random_for_linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tytso/random
Pull random subsystem patches from Ted Ts'o:
"This patch series contains a major revamp of how we collect entropy
from interrupts for /dev/random and /dev/urandom.
The goal is to addresses weaknesses discussed in the paper "Mining
your Ps and Qs: Detection of Widespread Weak Keys in Network Devices",
by Nadia Heninger, Zakir Durumeric, Eric Wustrow, J. Alex Halderman,
which will be published in the Proceedings of the 21st Usenix Security
Symposium, August 2012. (See https://factorable.net for more
information and an extended version of the paper.)"
Fix up trivial conflicts due to nearby changes in
drivers/{mfd/ab3100-core.c, usb/gadget/omap_udc.c}
