Xiaoming Ni 5475e8f03c random: move the random sysctl declarations to its own file 
kernel/sysctl.c is a kitchen sink where everyone leaves their dirty
dishes, this makes it very difficult to maintain.

To help with this maintenance let's start by moving sysctls to places
where they actually belong.  The proc sysctl maintainers do not want to
know what sysctl knobs you wish to add for your own piece of code, we
just care about the core logic.

So move the random sysctls to their own file and use
register_sysctl_init().

[mcgrof@kernel.org: commit log update to justify the move]
