The to be implemented health tests will maintain some per-CPU state as they successively process the IRQ samples fed into the resp. fast_pool from add_interrupt_randomness(). In order to not to clutter future patches with trivialities, introduce an empty struct health_test supposed to keep said state in the future. Add a member of this new type to struct fast_pool. Introduce a health_test_reset() stub, which is supposed to (re)initialize instances of struct health_test. Invoke it from the fast_pool_init_accounting() to make sure that a fast_pool's contained health_test instance gets initialized once before its first usage. Make add_interrupt_randomness call fast_pool_init_accounting() earlier: health test functionality will get invoked before the latter's old location and it must have been initialized by that time.
