[PATCH] random: ensure mix_interrupt_randomness() is consistent

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

This addresses two issues alluded to in an earlier commit.

The first issue is that mix_interrupt_randomness() might be migrated to
another CPU during CPU hotplug. This issue is rectified by checking that
it hasn't been migrated (after disabling migration). If it has been
migrated, then we set the count to zero, so that when the CPU comes
online again, it can requeue the work. As part of this, we switch to
using an atomic_t, so that the increment in the irq handler doesn't wipe
out the zeroing if the CPU comes back online while this worker is
running.

The second issue is that, though relatively minor in effect, we probably
do after all want to make sure we get a consistent view of the pool onto
the stack, in case it's interrupted by an irq while reading. To do this,
we simply read count before and after the memcpy and make sure they're
the same. If they're not, we try again. The likelihood of actually
hitting this is very low, as we're talking about a 2 or 4 word mov, and
we're executing on the same CPU as the potential interruption.
Nonetheless, it's easy enough to fix, so we do here.

If we only were concerned with the first issue rather than the second,
we could fix this entirely with just using an atomic_t. But in order to
fix them both, it requires a bit of coordination, which this patch
tackles.
