hwrng: Add a driver for the hwrng found in power7+ systems
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Add a driver for the hwrng found in power7+ systems, based on the
existing code for the arch_get_random_long() hook.

We only register a single instance of the driver, not one per device,
because we use the existing per_cpu array of devices in the arch code.
This means we always read from the "closest" device, avoiding inter-chip
memory traffic.

This is the driver for Random Number Generator hardware found
in POWER7+ and above machines for PowerNV platform.

To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
module will be called powernv-rng.
