Does this commit seem okay with you? I used the diff you sent below and
adjusted the commit message: https://git.zx2c4.com/linux-rng/commit/?id=56ff95ee85715047eb5b5220243778af657778c8

Yeah, that seems fine to me, thanks for taking care of it!

Can you adjust the LLVM value by one from 4294967295 to 4294967294? ~0U
is actually a special value, so we hit an assertion in the SystemZ
backend.
