From f0d7a4b3ed46816f5097d521850a8ab7a0d40f3c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Hugh Dickins Date: Tue, 6 Jan 2009 14:39:57 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] swapfile: let others seed random Remove the srandom32((u32)get_seconds()) from non-rotational swapon: there's been a coincidental discussion of earlier randomization, assume that goes ahead, let swapon be a client rather than stirring for itself.
