[RFC PATCH v1 29/50] fs/ocfs2/journal: Use prandom_u32() and not /dev/random for timeout

[George Spelvin <lkml@sdf.org>]

get_random_bytes() is expensive crypto-quality random numbers.
If we're just doing random backoff, prandom_u32() is plenty.

(Not to mention fetching 8 bytes of seed material only to
reduce it modulo 5000 is a huge waste.)

Also, convert timeouts to jiffies at compile time; convert
milliseconds to jiffies before picking a random number in the
range to take advantage of compile-time constant folding.
