u8 is not a nice type for a buffer. If the callers buffer is of another
type then we have an unnecessary cast. Use void * instead.

When the new hwrng has an init function, Shouldn't it be added to the list
also?

Why the detour round rng->buf? Can't we copy to the destination buf
directly?

This is unused and can be removed. The RNG driver should embed a struct
hwrng in it's driver private data and use container_of().

Drop the 'extern's please.
