There's no need to get_random_bytes() into a temporary buffer. This is not a no-brainer change; get_random_u32() has slightly weaker security guarantees, but code like this is the classic example of when it's appropriate: the random value is stored in the kernel for as long as it's valuable. TODO: Could any of the call sites be further weakened to prandom_u32()? If we're randomizing to avoid collisions with a *cooperating* (as opposed to malicious) partner, we don't need cryptographic strength.
