The loop condition never changes until just before a break, so we
might as well write it as a constant. Also since v2.6.33-rc7~40^2~2
("random: drop weird m_time/a_time manipulation") we don't do
anything after the loop finishes, so the 'break's might as well
return directly. Some other simplifications.
The behavior should be identical except that I've changed a debug
message.
