random: make /dev/random be almost like /dev/urandom
commit 30c08efec8884fb106b8e57094baa51bb4c44e32 upstream.
This patch changes the read semantics of /dev/random to be the same
as /dev/urandom except that reads will block until the CRNG is
ready.
None of the cleanups that this enables have been done yet. As a
result, this gives a warning about an unused function.
