Under earlyprintk, each RNG call produces a debug report line. To support the future FGKASLR feature, which will fetch random bytes during function shuffling, this is not useful information (each line is identical and tells us nothing new), needlessly spamming the console. Instead, allow for a NULL "purpose" to suppress the debug reporting.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
