[PATCH v1] Moving IRQ handler registering after imx_rngc_irq_mask_clear()

Issue:
While servicing interrupt, if the IRQ happens to be because of a SEED_DONE
due to a previous boot stage, you end up completing the completion
prematurely, hence causing kernel to crash while booting.

Fix:
Moving IRQ handler registering after imx_rngc_irq_mask_clear()

Fixes: 1d5449445bd0 (hwrng: mx-rngc - add a driver for Freescale RNGC)
