Subject: lib/list_sort: test: use generic random32
From: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@xxxxxxxxx>
Instead of using own pseudo-random generator, use generic linux
'random32()' function. Presumably, this should improve test coverage.
At the same time, do the following changes:
o Use shorter macro name for test list length
o Do not use strange 'l_h' name for 'struct list_head' element,
use 'list', because it is traditional name and thus, makes the
code more obvious and readable.
