random: avoid initializing twice in credit race
stable inclusion from stable-v5.10.119 commit 4c4110c052e86c5e1f6debf51c9c8cc0e501f19e category: bugfix bugzilla: https://gitee.com/openeuler/kernel/issues/I5L6BB Reference: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/commit/?id=4c4110c052e86c5e1f6debf51c9c8cc0e501f19e -------------------------------- commit fed7ef06 upstream. Since all changes of crng_init now go through credit_init_bits(), we can fix a long standing race in which two concurrent callers of credit_init_bits() have the new bit count >= some threshold, but are doing so with crng_init as a lower threshold, checked outside of a lock, resulting in crng_reseed() or similar being called twice. In order to fix this, we can use the original cmpxchg value of the bit count, and only change crng_init when the bit count transitions from below a threshold to meeting the threshold.
