Hi Lukasz,
Thanks to Roman, we found a potential regression in this solution.
Particularly when gen_rand_uuid() is called in a loop, get_timer(0)
might return the same value, leading to the same seed value being
passed to srand(), leading to the same uuid value being generated
for several partitions.
Please, hold off from applying the patch until I push a v2.
To be more clear, NAK.

Eugeniu.
