[PATCH] random: tie batched entropy generation to base_crng generation

["Jason A. Donenfeld" <Jason@zx2c4.com>]

Now that we have an explicit base_crng generation counter, we don't need
a separate one for batched entropy. Rather, we can just move the
generation forward every time we change crng_init state.
