Subject: [GIT PULL] random number generator updates for 6.10-rc1

Hi Linus,

I usually like to send you a pull early, but things got a bit delayed for me.
Nonetheless, these three small commits have been cooking in -next for a while
and I don't expect much trouble.

This pull has one new feature:

- The vmgenid driver can now be bound using device tree, rather than just
ACPI. The improvement, from Sudan, lets Amazon's Firecracker VMM make use of
the virtual device without having to expose an otherwise unused ACPI stack
in their "micro VM".

Please pull.

Thanks,
Jason

I forgot to mention, there's a small conflict with the pm tree, which
you've already pulled, where `.owner = THIS_MODULE` is removed from the
driver, as part of a tree-wide set of changes. The changes in my tree
convert the driver to a platform driver, rather than an acpi driver,
which also doesn't have the `.owner = THIS_MODULE` line, because those
got converted years ago. So the right conflict resolution is to just
take my commits and skip 00e8b52bf9. That's the same resolution in -next
too. It should be trivial enough.
