arm64: random: implement arch_get_random_int/_long based on RNDR
When support for RNDR/RNDRRS was introduced, we elected to only
implement arch_get_random_seed_int/_long(), and back them by RNDR
instead of RNDRRS. This was needed to prevent potential performance
and/or starvation issues resulting from the fact that the /dev/random
driver used to invoke these routines on various hot paths.
These issues have all been addressed now [0] [1], and so we can wire up
this API more straight-forwardly:
- map arch_get_random_int/_long() onto RNDR, which returns the output of
a DRBG that is reseeded at an implemented defined rate;
- map arch_get_random_seed_int/_long() onto the TRNG firmware service,
which returns true, conditioned entropy, or onto RNDRRS if the TRNG
service is unavailable, which returns the output of a DRBG that is
reseeded every time it is used.
