Currently, the rte_rand() state is initialized with seed, and each
rand state is initialized up until RTE_MAX_LCORE'th rand state. However,
rand state also has one extra rand state reserved for non-EAL threads,
which is not initialized. Fix it by initializing this extra state.

Fixes: 3f002f069612 ("eal: replace libc-based random generation with LFSR")

We have two series for fixing related issues.

Stephen alternative patch 1 handles Anatoly fix here.
https://patchwork.dpdk.org/project/dpdk/list/?series=29449&state=%2A&archive=both

I see Anatoly was acked by Mattias and Morten, though Stephen
(RTE_DIM) fix is more elegant.
How do you guys want me to proceed?


Thanks.

Please use patch 1 from Stephen, which I have now thoroughly reviewed, instead of this patch from Anatoly.

Stephen hadn't posted his fix when I acked this, I believe.

RTE_DIM() makes the thing more readable. I'm fine with either 
"RTE_MAX_LCORE + 1" or "RTE_DIM()", but I would prefer the latter.

I'm OK with either, so please feel free to merge Stephen's patch :)
