hwrng: core - Remove add_early_randomness
A potential deadlock was reported with the config file at
https://web.archive.org/web/
20240522052129/https://0x0.st/XPN_.txt
In this particular configuration, the deadlock doesn't exist because
the warning triggered at a point before modules were even available.
However, the deadlock can be real because any module loaded would
invoke async_synchronize_full.
The issue is spurious for software crypto algorithms which aren't
themselves involved in async probing. However, it would be hard to
avoid for a PCI crypto driver using async probing.
In this particular call trace, the problem is easily avoided because
the only reason the module is being requested during probing is the
add_early_randomness call in the hwrng core. This feature is
vestigial since there is now a kernel thread dedicated to doing
exactly this.
So remove add_early_randomness as it is no longer needed.
