It might make sense for the cryptov1-rng driver (I haven't checked). For
the cryptov2-rng driver, I looked at the RK3568 TRM (I can't find the
RK3588 one), and from what I understand crypto and TRNG are two
different devices, using different address spaces, clock, reset and
interrupts. The vendor kernel uses two different drivers.
