[PATCH net-next 0/2] afs: Use system UUID generation

There is now a general function for generating a UUID and AFS should make
use of it.  It's also been recommended to me that I switch to using random
rather than time plus MAC address-based UUIDs which this function does.

The patches can be found here also:
