[PATCH 5.4 129/240] random: fix sysctl documentation nits

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Mon Jun 20 2022 - 09:51:39 EST


From: "Jason A. Donenfeld" <Jason@xxxxxxxxx>

commit 069c4ea6871c18bd368f27756e0f91ffb524a788 upstream.

A semicolon was missing, and the almost-alphabetical-but-not ordering
was confusing, so regroup these by category instead.
