[PATCH 08/10] drivers/char: Support compiling out /dev/urandom

[Tom Zanussi <tom.zanussi@linux.intel.com>]

Some embedded systems with tightly controlled userspace have no use
for /dev/urandom, and could benefit from the size savings gained by
omitting it.  Add a new EMBEDDED config option to disable it.

bloat-o-meter (based on tinyconfig):

add/remove: 0/2 grow/shrink: 1/0 up/down: 77/-212 (-135)
function                                     old     new   delta
sys_getrandom                                211     288     +77
urandom_read                                  96       -     -96
urandom_fops                                 116       -    -116
