[ 156/180] random: simplify fips mode

From: Willy Tarreau
Date: Mon Oct 01 2012 - 20:10:08 EST


2.6.32-longterm review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Matt Mackall <mpm@xxxxxxxxxxx>

commit e954bc91bdd4bb08b8325478c5004b24a23a3522 upstream.

Rather than dynamically allocate 10 bytes, move it to static allocation.
This saves space and avoids the need for error checking.

[PG: adding this simplifies required updates to random for .34 stable]
