crypto: rng - Introduce crypto_rng_generate
This patch adds the new top-level function crypto_rng_generate which generates random numbers with additional input. It also extends the mid-level rng_gen_random function to take additional data as input. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
