[PATCH] net_random_init needs to get seed later in boot process

[Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@xxxxxxxx>]

Argh.. random_init isn't called until the device's are initialized.
Rather than mess with random.c initialization, how about this; it resets
the net_random state late in initialization when get_random_bytes is ready.
