random: initialize the non-blocking pool via add_hwgenerator_randomness()

BugLink: http://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1615620

commit 3371f3da upstream.

If we have a hardware RNG and are using the in-kernel rngd, we should
use this to initialize the non-blocking pool so that getrandom(2)
doesn't block unnecessarily.
