Subject: [PATCH 13/14] random: Remove SA_SAMPLE_RANDOM from IRQ fastpath
Date: Fri, 05 May 2006 11:42:36 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <14.420169009@selenic.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <2.420169009@selenic.com>
Remove SA_SAMPLE_RANDOM
This removes the SA_SAMPLE_RANDOM interface which was not used with
sufficient paranoia and introduced an extra branch test into all IRQ
handling.
