From: Christopher Obbard <chris.obbard@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 9e70cbd11b03889c92462cf52edb2bd023c798fa ] Initialising the hwrng struct with zeros causes a compile-time sparse warning: $ ARCH=um make -j10 W=1 C=1 CF='-fdiagnostic-prefix -D__CHECK_ENDIAN__' ... CHECK arch/um/drivers/random.c arch/um/drivers/random.c:31:31: sparse: warning: Using plain integer as NULL pointer Fix the warning by not initialising the hwrng struct with zeros as it is initialised anyway during module init.
