Subject: [PATCH 4/7] lib/random32.c: Use <asm/unaligned.h> instead of hand-rolling it
Date: 7 Jun 2014 04:25:18 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20140607082518.9989.qmail@ns.horizon.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20140607081828.9294.qmail@ns.horizon.com>

The functions exist for a reason; the manual byte-at-a-time code
is unnecessarily slow (and bloated).
