/**
 * struct hwrng - Hardware Random Number Generator driver
 * @name:               Unique RNG name.
 * @init:               Initialization callback (can be NULL).
 * @cleanup:            Cleanup callback (can be NULL).
 * @data_present:       Callback to determine if data is available
 *                      on the RNG. If NULL, it is assumed that
 *                      there is always data available.  *OBSOLETE*
 * @data_read:          Read data from the RNG device.
 *                      Returns the number of lower random bytes in "data".
 *                      Must not be NULL.    *OBSOLETE*
 * @read:               New API. drivers can fill up to max bytes of data
 *                      into the buffer. The buffer is aligned for any type
 *                      and max is a multiple of 4 and >= 32 bytes.
 * @priv:               Private data, for use by the RNG driver.
 * @quality:            Estimation of true entropy in RNG's bitstream
 *                      (per mill).
