[PATCH] tpm: Add module parameter for hwrng quality.
From: Louis Collard
Date: Fri Jun 08 2018 - 02:54:50 EST
It is now possible for drivers to easily specify a hwrng quality, however
most do not currently do this, and in cases where they do, it may be
desirable to override the driver-specified value with a user-specified
one. This patch adds a parameter to set or override the hwrng quality.
