[PATCH v29 02/12] LRNG - allocate one DRNG instance per NUMA node

In order to improve NUMA-locality when serving getrandom(2) requests,
allocate one DRNG instance per node.

The DRNG instance that is present right from the start of the kernel is
reused as the first per-NUMA-node DRNG. For all remaining online NUMA
nodes a new DRNG instance is allocated.

During boot time, the multiple DRNG instances are seeded sequentially.
With this, the first DRNG instance (referenced as the initial DRNG
in the code) is completely seeded with 256 bits of entropy before the
next DRNG instance is completely seeded.

When random numbers are requested, the NUMA-node-local DRNG is checked
whether it has been already fully seeded. If this is not the case, the
initial DRNG is used to serve the request.
