random: final removal of IRQF_SAMPLE_RANDOM
The IRQF_SAMPLE_RANDOM flag is finally gone from the kernel tree, only three years late. :-) Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>

-What: IRQF_SAMPLE_RANDOM
-Check: IRQF_SAMPLE_RANDOM
-When: July 2009
-
-Why: Many of IRQF_SAMPLE_RANDOM users are technically bogus as entropy
- sources in the kernel's current entropy model. To resolve this, every
- input point to the kernel's entropy pool needs to better document the
- type of entropy source it actually is. This will be replaced with
- additional add_*_randomness functions in drivers/char/random.c
