[PATCH] random: do not take pool spinlock at boot

[Jason A. Donenfeld]

Since rand_initialize() is run while interrupts are still off and
nothing else is running, we don't need to repeatedly take and release
the pool spinlock, especially in the RDSEED loop.

Dominik - I'm still a bit unclear about early boot semantics that you
seem to know well. Is this patch correct?
