Subject: [RFC PATCH 3/3] Revert "virtio: rng: ensure reads happen after successful probe"
Date: Mon, 14 Jul 2014 10:05:21 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <a70ace7d8caa053bc0c5d68a27e638718019a35e.1405277045.git.amit.shah@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1405277045.git.amit.shah@redhat.com>
In-Reply-To: <cover.1405277045.git.amit.shah@redhat.com>

This reverts commit ceb5d72a2e27e95bc9570ce259c45b35f0e23462.

This commit was added for -stable so systems with virtio-rng don't
freeze at boot-time.

With the addition of the previous commits that delay the request for
initial randomness after probe() is successful, this is no longer
needed.
