Have you considered just creating two separate functions:
- meson_rng_read
- meson_s4_rng_read

Then you don't need all of these if/else.
You can even skip the whole offset description in your new struct
meson_rng_priv.
All of this can make the code easier to understand.

Why not just #define SEED_READY_STS as BIT(...) right away?


Best regards,
Martin
