Re: [PATCH 2/3] hwrng: stm32 - add support for STM32 HW RNG

Hi Daniel,

On 10/03/2015 10:35 PM, Daniel Thompson wrote:
Add support for STMicroelectronics STM32 random number generator.

The config value defaults to N, reflecting the fact that STM32 is a
very low resource microcontroller platform and unlikely to be targeted
by any "grown up" defconfigs.

Maybe you should instead use WARN_ONCE?
Because from what I understand in the datasheet, CEIS bit indicates and error with clock configuration.
If that happens, it is likely the same error will occur each time this function will be called.

Maybe you could perform this check before the error detection, as if !sr, the HW error condition will be always false.

Couldn't we use "_relaxed" versions of readl/writel?
I might save some not needed barriers.

As detected with Coccinelle by Fengguang build system, you could simplify:
return hwrng_register(&priv->rng);
