[PATCH 03/10] Remove the fallback dependency on os_random() from the code that gets a valid DFS channel

[Nick Lowe]

 Remove the fallback dependency on os_random() from the
 code that gets a valid DFS channel. This is exceptionally unlikely to ever be
 called as the call to os_get_random(...) is exceptionally unlikely to fail.
 The intention is to facilitate future removal of os_random() as it uses a low
 quality PRNG.
