No, it's for crng_init == 0 only.

Same here.

Sidenote: We should get rid of the sole caller of that function, and then of
this function. AFAICS, using get_random_bytes() (once rand_initialize() has
been called) should never be less secure than get_random_bytes_arch() IFF
arch_get_random_long() exists -- which is what the sole caller seems to be
interested in.

Otherwise, all looks good. Thanks,
