Subject[RFC PATCH 31/41] random: introduce struct health_test + health_test_reset() placeholders
Date
The to be implemented health tests will maintain some per-CPU state as they
successively process the IRQ samples fed into the resp. fast_pool from
add_interrupt_randomness().

In order to not to clutter future patches with trivialities, introduce
an empty struct health_test supposed to keep said state in the future.
Add a member of this new type to struct fast_pool.

Introduce a health_test_reset() stub, which is supposed to (re)initialize
instances of struct health_test.

Invoke it from the fast_pool_init_accounting() to make sure that a
fast_pool's contained health_test instance gets initialized once before
its first usage.

Make add_interrupt_randomness call fast_pool_init_accounting() earlier:
health test functionality will get invoked before the latter's old location
and it must have been initialized by that time.
