Subject: s390/archrandom: Reconsider s390 arch random implementation
Git-commit: f44fa88745eda1530083b361e300e1ca4e15a6c5
Patch-mainline: v4.15-rc1
References: bnc#1096753, LTC#168037

The reworked version of the random device driver now calls
the arch_get_random_* functions on a very high frequency.
It does about 100.000 calls to arch_get_random_long for
providing 10 MB via /dev/urandom. Each invocation was
fetching entropy from the hardware random generator which
has a rate limit of about 4 MB/s. As the trng invocation
waits until enough entropy is gathered, the random device
driver is slowed down dramatically.

The s390 true random generator is not designed for such
a high rate. The TRNG is more designed to be used together
with the arch_get_random_seed_* functions. This is similar
to the way how powerpc has implemented their arch random
functionality.

This patch removes the invocations of the s390 TRNG for
arch_get_random_long() and arch_get_random_int() but leaving
the invocations for arch_get_random_seed_long() and
arch_get_random_seed_int(). So the s390 arch random
implementation now contributes high quality entropy to
the kernel random device for reseeding.
