carl9170: export HW random number generator
All AR9170 hardware have a 16-Bit random number generator. The documentation claims the values are suitable for "security keys". The "throughput" is around 320Kibit/s. It's slow, but it does work without introducing any special offload firmware commands. Signed-off-by: Christian Lamparter <chunkeey@googlemail.com> Signed-off-by: John W.
