Pull random subsystem patches from Ted Ts'o:
 "This patch series contains a major revamp of how we collect entropy
  from interrupts for /dev/random and /dev/urandom.

  The goal is to addresses weaknesses discussed in the paper "Mining
  your Ps and Qs: Detection of Widespread Weak Keys in Network Devices",
  by Nadia Heninger, Zakir Durumeric, Eric Wustrow, J.  Alex Halderman,
  which will be published in the Proceedings of the 21st Usenix Security
  Symposium, August 2012.  (See https://factorable.net for more
  information and an extended version of the paper.)"

Fix up trivial conflicts due to nearby changes in
drivers/{mfd/ab3100-core.c, usb/gadget/omap_udc.c}

* tag 'random_for_linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tytso/random: (33 commits)
  random: mix in architectural randomness in extract_buf()
  dmi: Feed DMI table to /dev/random driver

In order to make sure pfmemalloc packets receive all memory needed to
proceed, ensure processing of pfmemalloc SKBs happens under PF_MEMALLOC.
This is limited to a subset of protocols that are expected to be used for
writing to swap.  Taps are not allowed to use PF_MEMALLOC as these are
expected to communicate with userspace processes which could be paged out.

Make it follow device decapsulation, from things such as VLAN and
bonding.

The stuff that actually cares about pre-demuxed device pointers, is
handled by the "orig_dev" variable in __netif_receive_skb().  And
the only consumer of that is the po-&gt;origdev feature of AF_PACKET
sockets.

zero copy packets are normally sent to the outside
network, but bridging, tun etc might loop them
back to host networking stack. If this happens
destructors will never be called, so orphan
the frags immediately on receive.
