CVE-2022-49698

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

netfilter: use get_random_u32 instead of prandom

bh might occur while updating per-cpu rnd_state from user context,
ie. local_out path.

BUG: using smp_processor_id() in preemptible [00000000] code: nginx/2725
caller is nft_ng_random_eval+0x24/0x54 [nft_numgen]
Call Trace:
 check_preemption_disabled+0xde/0xe0
 nft_ng_random_eval+0x24/0x54 [nft_numgen]

Use the random driver instead, this also avoids need for local prandom
state. Moreover, prandom now uses the random driver since d4150779e60f
("random32: use real rng for non-deterministic randomness").

Based on earlier patch from Pablo Neira.
