random: remove rand_initialize_irq()
With the new interrupt sampling system, we are no longer using the timer_rand_state structure in the irq descriptor, so we can stop initializing it now. [ Merged in fixes from Sedat to find some last missing references to rand_initialize_irq() ] Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu> Signed-off-by: Sedat Dilek <sedat.dilek@gmail.com>
