Cover letter [PATCH 0/2] New hardware RNG for Octeon SOCs.

Behold the Random Number Generator driver for Octeon!

The first patch adds some port definitions and the octeon_rng platform device. The second is the driver.

I am copying AKPM and Linus as there seems to be no hw_random maintainer.

Since Octeon is a mips port, we might want to merge both patches via Ralf's tree.

Comments?
