Hi guys,
This version uses a statically allocated buffer. I dont feel it is a
good idea not to pass the address and length of the buffer to the hardware
drivers, as they shouldnt have intimate knowledge of the core, IMO.
Only resendiong the core patch, the virtio-rng driver hasnt changed.
hw_random: core updates to allow more efficient drivers
