In the code I don't understand on what the wakeup operate nor on what the
blocking operate.
randomdev_unblock(void)
{
if (!random_context.seeded) {
#ifndef __OSV__
selwakeuppri(&random_context.rsel, PUSER);
#endif
wakeup(&random_context);
random_context does not look like a wait condition it look strange.
