David Daney 3b802c9455 Revert "hwrng: core - zeroize buffers with random data" 
This reverts commit 2cc7515458.

With this commit in place I get on a Cavium ThunderX (arm64) system:

To my untrained mental entropy detector, the first several bytes of
each read from /dev/hwrng seem to not be very random (i.e. all zero).

When I revert the patch (apply this patch), I get back to what we have
in v4.9, which looks like (much more random appearing):
