random: do not split fast init input in add_hwgenerator_randomness()
add_hwgenerator_randomness() tries to only use the required amount of input for fast init, but credits all the entropy, rather than a fraction of it. Since it's hard to determine how much entropy is left over out of a non-unformly random sample, either give it all to fast init or credit it, but don't attempt to do both. In the process, we can clean up the injection code to no longer need to return a value.
