Subject: [PATCH] random: do not use jump labels before they are initialized

Stephen reported that a static key warning splat appears during early boot on systems that credit randomness from device trees that contain an "rng-seed" property, because because setup_machine_fdt() is called before jump_label_init() during setup_arch():

static_key_enable_cpuslocked(): static key '0xffffffe51c6fcfc0' used before call to jump_label_init()

 random: crng init done
 Machine model: Google Lazor (rev1 - 2) with LTE

A trivial fix went in to address this on arm64, 73e2d827a501 ("arm64:
Initialize jump labels before setup_machine_fdt()"). I wrote patches as well for arm32 and risc-v. But still patches are needed on xtensa, powerpc, arc, and mips. So that's 7 platforms where things aren't quite right. This sort of points to larger issues that might need a larger solution.

Instead, this commit just defers setting the static branch until later in the boot process. random_init() is called after jump_label_init() has been called, and so is always a safe place from which to adjust the static branch.
