Subject[PATCH] random: use init_utsname() instead of utsname()
Date
Rather than going through the current-> indirection for utsname, at this
point in boot, init_utsname()==utsname(), so just use it directly that
way. Additionally, init_utsname() appears to be available nearly always,
so move it into random_init_early().
