Subject: [PATCH 2/2] random: convert get_random_int/long into get_random_u32/u64
Date: Fri,  6 Jan 2017 19:32:02 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20170106183202.5035-2-Jason@zx2c4.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20170106183202.5035-1-Jason@zx2c4.com>

Many times, when a user wants a random number, he wants a random number
of a guaranteed size. So, thinking of get_random_int and get_random_long
in terms of get_random_u32 and get_random_u64 makes it much easier to
achieve this. It also makes the code simpler.

On 32-bit platforms, get_random_int and get_random_long are both aliased
to get_random_u32. On 64-bit platforms, int->u32 and long->u64.
