Series random: fix write locking for crng_init | expand

Commit Message

crng_init is protected by primary_crng->lock. Therefore, we need
to hold this lock when increasing crng_init to 2. As we shouldn't
hold this lock for too long, only hold it for crng_finalize_init(),
and split out the parts which can be delayed to crng_late_init().

If crng_finalize_init() cannot proceed due to workqueues not yet
being available, it is called again in rand_initialize(). Then, we
do not need to call crng_late_init(): At this time, the boot
process is still so early that there are no other processes to wake
up.
