The value stored in last_data must be primed for FIPS 140-2 purposes. Upon first use, either on system startup or after an RNDCLEARPOOL ioctl, we need to take an initial random sample, store it internally in last_data, then pass along the value after that to the requester, so that consistency checks aren't being run against stale and possibly known data. v2: streamline code flow a bit, eliminating extra loop and spinlock in the case where we need to prime, and account for the extra primer bits. v3: extract_buf() can't be called with spinlock already held, so bring back some extra lock/unlock calls.
