[PATCH V2 1/1] Add hw random number generator (/dev/hwrng) to cgroup ACL

["Pradipta Kr. Banerjee" <bpradip@xxxxxxxxxx>]

From: "Pradipta Kr. Banerjee" <bpradip@xxxxxxxxxx>

Creating a qemu VM with /dev/hwrng as backend RNG device throws the
following error - "Could not open '/dev/hwrng': Permission denied"
This patch fixes the issue
