Jens Axboe cf8f8d3758 random: convert to using fops->write_iter()
commit 22b0a222af4df8ee9bb8e07013ab44da9511b047 upstream.

Now that the read side has been converted to fix a regression with
splice, convert the write side as well to have some symmetry in the
interface used (and help deprecate ->write()).

[Jason: cleaned up random_ioctl a bit, require full writes in
 RNDADDENTROPY since it's crediting entropy, simplify control flow of
 write_pool(), and incorporate suggestions from Al.]

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
