I took the block you added to omap36xx and copied it to omap34xx.
Since this is present in the omap2.dtsi, I wonder if it could be used
at the omap3.dtsi level instead of am3517, omap34xx and omap36xx.
What is not clear to me is the clocking architecture needed. The
omap34xx-omap36xx-clocks.dtsi have the aes1, rng_ick, sha1, and des1
setup which appears to be present in the am3517 based on that
datasheet, but they are all dependent on the security_l4_ick2 which is
not defined for am35. I wonder if all these could move to omap3 and
its respective clock file. Duplicating it in 3x locations doesn't
seem to make sense, but I don't have every permutation of omap3 to
know, and those features are not clearly documented.

I have it working on an omap3530:

I have not been able to replicate the issue you mentioned about it
dying after a few reads and/or rmmod-modprobe cycles.

The hwmod I used was a copy-paste from omap2, so it might not be
needed in omap3's at all.

I don't know enough about the HS version of the OMAP3, but what's the
main difference between omap3-rom-rng and this one?
