[PATCH v2 2/2] hwrng: st - keep clock enabled while hwrng is registered

[Martin Kaiser]

The st-rng driver uses devres to register itself with the hwrng core,
the driver will be unregistered from hwrng when its device goes out of
scope. This happens after the driver's remove function is called.

However, st-rng's clock is disabled in the remove function. There's a
short timeframe where st-rng is still registered with the hwrng core
although its clock is disabled. I suppose the clock must be active to
access the hardware and serve requests from the hwrng core.

Switch to devm_clk_get_enabled and let devres disable the clock and
unregister the hwrng. This avoids the race condition.

Fixes: 3e75241be808 ("hwrng: drivers - Use device-managed registration API")

v2:
  - don't unprepare the clock if devm_hwrng_register fails
  - don't set driver data, it was used only in the remove function that's
    now gone
  - rephrase the commit message, the clock is now disabled by devres
