Please don't do local variables like this. Put them at the top of the
function.

Maybe this should be written as:
spin_lock()
if (wait) {
has_data = readl_poll_timeout_atomic(...) == 0;
} else {
val = readl_relaxed(rng->base + PRNG_STATUS);
has_data = val & PRNG_STATUS_DATA_AVAIL;
}
if (has_data)
val = readl_relaxed(rng->base + PRNG_DATA_OUT);
spin_unlock();
if (!has_data)
break;

Is this a related change? Looks like a nice comment that isn't related
to locking.
