Jason A. Donenfeld 829d680e82 random: cap jitter samples per bit to factor of HZ
Currently the jitter mechanism will require two timer ticks per
iteration, and it requires N iterations per bit. This N is determined
with a small measurement, and if it's too big, it won't waste time with
jitter entropy because it'd take too long or not have sufficient entropy
anyway.

With the current max N of 32, there are large timeouts on systems with a
small CONFIG_HZ. Rather than set that maximum to 32, instead choose a
factor of CONFIG_HZ. In this case, 1/30 seems to yield sane values for
different configurations of CONFIG_HZ.
