Subject: [PATCH 28/38] crypto: drbg - Simplify drbg_generate_long() and fold into caller
Date: Sun, 19 Apr 2026 23:34:12 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260420063422.324906-29-ebiggers@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260420063422.324906-1-ebiggers@kernel.org>

Simplify drbg_generate_long() to use a more straightforward loop, and
then fold it into its only caller.  No functional change.
