From: "Jason A. Donenfeld" <Jason@xxxxxxxxx> This function is consistent with using size instead of seed->size (except for one place that this patch fixes), but it reads seed->size without using READ_ONCE, which means the compiler might still do something unwanted. So, this commit simply adds the READ_ONCE wrapper. Signed-off-by: Jason A. Donenfeld <Jason@xxxxxxxxx> Fixes: 636259880a7e ("efi: Add support for seeding the RNG from a UEFI ...")
