(From update of attachment 8935)
What I think should be really done is to move liblustre versions of
get_random_bytes/generate_random_uuid 
to obdclass/prng.c as ll_* functions.

I am sure there are some bits in UUID that are meaningful. E.g. see kernel's
realisation:
        /* Set UUID version to 4 --- truely random generation */
        uuid_out[6] = (uuid_out[6] & 0x0F) | 0x40;
        /* Set the UUID variant to DCE */
        uuid_out[8] = (uuid_out[8] & 0x3F) | 0x80;

Not sure how much we care about this, though.
