[PATCH] random32: avoid attempt to late reseed if in the middle of seeding

[Sasha Levin <sasha.levin@oracle.com>]

Commit 4af712e8df ("random32: add prandom_reseed_late() and call when
nonblocking pool becomes initialized") has added a late reseed stage
that happens as soon as the nonblocking pool is marked as initialized.

This fails in the case that the nonblocking pool gets initialized
during __prandom_reseed()'s call to get_random_bytes(). In that case
we'd double back into __prandom_reseed() in an attempt to do a late
reseed - deadlocking on 'lock' early on in the boot process.

Instead, just avoid even waiting to do a reseed if a reseed is already
occuring.
