[PATCH v2] random: add proper SPDX header

From: Jason A. Donenfeld
Date: Thu Feb 10 2022 - 11:16:28 EST


Somehow this file missed the SPDXification efforts several years ago.
Convert the current license into "(GPL-2.0-or-later OR BSD-3-Clause)".

Hi SPDX List,

I think I got this conversion right, but I would certainly appreciate a
review on this from somebody with more legal expertise than me.

Thanks,
Jason
