The prandom_u32() function has been a deprecated inline wrapper around
get_random_u32() for several releases now, and compiles down to the
exact same code. Replace the deprecated wrapper with a direct call to
the real function.

trivia:

There are somewhat odd size mismatches here.

I had to think a tiny bit if random() returned a value from 0 to 7
and was promoted to a 64 bit value then truncated to 32 bit.

Perhaps these would be clearer as ~7U and not ~7UL
