random: Fix behavior of kernel option "-rs".
In init.c at line 275:
random_init (rtc_get_time ());
The comments claim that "This has no effect if an "-rs" option was
specified." However, this line actually overrides the initialization at
“-rs”.
To see the effect, we can try generating some random bytes after parsing
the arguments. Apply the patch file randprint.patch, I get the following
group of output w/ and w/o "-rs", and w/ and w/o simulator RTC:
Kernel command line: -q
Unix epoch is 9

Kernel command line: -q -rs=1

c1 ac a2 a1 3c e7 83 a3 31 a9 31 3f 2d 1c fa f9
Expected output is that the last three ones has the same output, and
they should differ from the first output.
This commit fixes the problem. We check `inited` variable at the
beginning of the random_init function.
New output:
