srandom32 fixes for networking

[Repost; please ack/nack. This fixes some subtle issues in networking
random number handling]

- Rename it to a different name because it does something quite
different from a traditional user land srandom32 -- it doesn't
reset state but just adds to it.

- Let it update the state of all CPUs. The network stack goes
into pains to feed the current IP addresses in, but it is not very
effective if that is only done for some random CPU instead of all.
So change it to feed bits into all CPUs.  I decided to do that lockless 
because well somewhat random results are ok.
