From: "Jason A. Donenfeld" <Jason@xxxxxxxxx> commit 68c9c8b192c6dae9be6278e98ee44029d5da2d31 upstream. Initialization happens once -- by way of credit_init_bits() -- and then it never happens again. Therefore, it doesn't need to be in crng_reseed(), which is a hot path that is called multiple times. It also doesn't make sense to have there, as initialization activity is better associated with initialization routines. After the prior commit, crng_reseed() now won't be called by multiple concurrent callers, which means that we can safely move the "finialize_init" logic into crng_init_bits() unconditionally.
