[PATCH 0/2] Revamp randomize_range()

[Yann Droneaud <ydroneaud@opteya.com>]

Hi,

Please find two patches to remove unused/unwanted behavor
on randomize_range() function.

The first one remove the last option (len) which is unused
in current kernel. The second one rewrite the function to not
fail, allowing to remove the error handling code from the
calling functions.

I've not added the maintainers of the various arch modified
by the patches, wanted first to have your opinion about the
changes.

Regards.

Yann Droneaud (2):
  random: remove unused len argument in randomize_range() function
  random: don't return 0 in randomize_range()
