Larry Finger eeb405fd97 b43: Fix lockdep splat 
commit 09164043f6 upstream.

In https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=67561, a locking dependency is reported
when b43 is used with hostapd, and rfkill is used to kill the radio output.

The lockdep splat (in part) is as follows:

======================================================
[ INFO: possible circular locking dependency detected ]
3.12.0 #1 Not tainted
-------------------------------------------------------
rfkill/10040 is trying to acquire lock:
 (rtnl_mutex){+.+.+.}, at: [<ffffffff8146f282>] rtnl_lock+0x12/0x20

but task is already holding lock:
 (rfkill_global_mutex){+.+.+.}, at: [<ffffffffa04832ca>] rfkill_fop_write+0x6a/0x170 [rfkill]

--snip--

Chain exists of:
  rtnl_mutex --> misc_mtx --> rfkill_global_mutex

The fix is to move the initialization of the hardware random number generator
outside the code range covered by the rtnl_mutex.
