[PATCH v2 2/2] m68k/amiga: Provide mach_random_get_entropy()

From: Geert Uytterhoeven
Date: Fri Oct 18 2013 - 07:24:33 EST


Use the beam position registers, which provide at least 17 bits of data
changing at 1.79 MHz.

Signed-off-by: Geert Uytterhoeven <geert@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

v2:
- Use beam position registers (which provide a faster rate but less bits)
instead of 24-bit Time-Of-Day clock in CIA B running at HSYNC.
