Jason A. Donenfeld 1c99c6a7c3 mips: use fallback for random_get_entropy() instead of just c0 random
For situations in which we don't have a c0 counter register available,
we've been falling back to reading the c0 "random" register, which is
usually bounded by the amount of TLB entries and changes every other
cycle or so. This means it wraps extremely often. We can do better by
combining this fast-changing counter with a potentially slower-changing
counter from random_get_entropy_fallback() in the more significant bits.
This commit combines the two, taking into account that the changing bits
are in a different bit position depending on the CPU model. In addition,
we previously were falling back to 0 for ancient CPUs that Linux does
not support anyway; remove that dead path entirely.
