[PATCH v1 2/2] hw_random: timeriomem_rng: Allow setting RNG quality from platform data

From: Rick Altherr
Date: Wed May 17 2017 - 18:29:33 EST


When a hw_random device's quality is non-zero, it will automatically be
used to fill the kernel's entropy pool. Since timeriomem_rng is used by
many different devices, the quality needs to be provided by platform
data or device tree.
