Jason A. Donenfeld 6fd3ff02da random: make consistent use of buf and len 
commit a19402634c upstream.

The current code was a mix of "nbytes", "count", "size", "buffer", "in",
and so forth. Instead, let's clean this up by naming input parameters
"buf" (or "ubuf") and "len", so that you always understand that you're
reading this variety of function argument.

README 

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.
