Subject: [kernel-hardening] [PATCH v3 7/7] random: Remove unused randomize_range()
Date: Wed,  3 Aug 2016 23:39:13 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20160803233913.32511-8-jason@lakedaemon.net> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20160803233913.32511-1-jason@lakedaemon.net>

All call sites for randomize_range have been updated to use the much
simpler and more robust randomize_addr.  Remove the now unnecessary
code.
