The lock_sock is only needed if you're doing testing.  What I'd
prefer is to have a completely different code-path for testing.

How about you fork the code in rng_accept_parent so that you have
a separate proto_ops for the test path that is used only if
setentropy has been called? That way all of this code could
magically go away if the CONFIG option wasn't set.

Cheers,
