Since commit 4a072c71f49b ("random: silence compiler warnings and fix
race") there is a READ_ONCE().
I doubt that this required here but I don't have the time to argue with
Jason. Instead I push the access further down so we don't read crng_init
if we can leave the function after arch_get_random_XXX(). This is
something the compiler did before the READ_ONCE() got it.
