    random: move the random sysctl declarations to its own file · 5475e8f0
    Xiaoming Ni authored
    kernel/sysctl.c is a kitchen sink where everyone leaves their dirty
    dishes, this makes it very difficult to maintain.
    
    To help with this maintenance let's start by moving sysctls to places
    where they actually belong.  The proc sysctl maintainers do not want to
    know what sysctl knobs you wish to add for your own piece of code, we
    just care about the core logic.
    
    So move the random sysctls to their own file and use
    register_sysctl_init().
