[GIT PULL] random number generator fixes for 5.18-rc2

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

Hi Linus,

Please pull the following five fixes to the RNG for 5.18-rc2:

- Another fixup to the fast_init/crng_init split, this time in how much
  entropy is being credited, from Jan Varho.

- As discussed, we now opportunistically call try_to_generate_entropy() in
  /dev/urandom reads, as a replacement for the reverted commit. I opted to not
  do the more invasive wait_for_random_bytes() change at least for now,
  preferring to do something smaller and more obvious for the time being, but
  maybe that can be revisited as things evolve later.

- Userspace can use FUSE or userfaultfd or simply move a process to idle
  priority in order to make a read from the random device never complete,
  which breaks forward secrecy, fixed by overwriting sensitive bytes early on
  in the function.

- Jann Horn noticed that /dev/urandom reads were only checking for pending
  signals if need_resched() was true, a bug going back to the genesis commit,
  now fixed by always checking for signal_pending() and calling
  cond_resched(). This explains various noticeable signal delivery delays I've
  seen in programs over the years that do long reads from /dev/urandom.

- In order to be more like other devices (e.g. /dev/zero) and to mitigate the
  impact of fixing the above bug, which has been around forever (users have
  never really needed to check the return value of read() for medium-sized
  reads and so perhaps many didn't), we now move signal checking to the bottom
  part of the loop, and do so every PAGE_SIZE-bytes.

Thanks,
Jason
