Subject: hwrng: core - allow perfect entropy from hardware devices
X-Git-Url: http://git.lede-project.org./?a=commitdiff_plain;h=506bf0c0464ace57169aadcf02ae397999c57bdd;p=openwrt%2Fstaging%2Fblogic.git

hwrng: core - allow perfect entropy from hardware devices

Hardware random number quality is measured from 0 (no entropy) to 1024
(perfect entropy). Allow hardware devices to assert the full range by
truncating the device-provided value at 1024 instead of 1023.
