tcp: switch tcp_fastopen key generation to net_get_random_once
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Changed key initialization of tcp_fastopen cookies to net_get_random_once.

If the user sets a custom key net_get_random_once must be called at
least once to ensure we don't overwrite the user provided key when the
first cookie is generated later on.
