[RFC PATCH v1 24/50] crypto4xx_core: Use more appropriate seed for PRNG

[RFC PATCH v1 24/50] crypto4xx_core: Use more appropriate seed for PRNG

[George Spelvin]

A PRNG doesn't need the full security guarantees of
get_random_bytes() (and a 64-bit seed can be brute-forced
anyway); get_random_u32() is quite sufficient.
