[PATCH 11/14] random: separate entropy since auto-push fromentropy_total

[Greg Price]

We're using and updating the entropy_total field for different
purposes on input_pool and nonblocking_pool, only one of which
matches the name.  This makes it hard to understand what the field
means.

Separate the computation on input_pool, which is of entropy since
the last auto-push, from the computation on nonblocking_pool.
Also compute 'initialized' only for nonblocking_pool, which is the
only place where the concept really makes sense.
