From c5857ccf293968348e5eb4ebedc68074de3dcda6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Theodore Ts'o Date: Sat, 14 Jul 2012 20:27:52 -0400 Subject: random: remove rand_initialize_irq() With the new interrupt sampling system, we are no longer using the timer_rand_state structure in the irq descriptor, so we can stop initializing it now.
