I already did this. Check my branch.

Good idea. I'll write up some extensive documentation about all of
this, detailing use cases and our various conclusions.

That's a good idea, since ultimately the other just casts in the
return value. I wonder if this could also lead to a similar aliasing
with arch_get_random_int, since I'm pretty sure all rdrand-like
instructions return native word size anyway.

And me, I hope... No need to make this exclusive.
