The patch for commit: 5c06273401f2eb7b290cadbae18ee00f8f65e893 Author: Amit Shah <amit.shah@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Sun Jul 27 07:34:01 2014 +0930 virtio: rng: delay hwrng_register() till driver is ready moved the call to hwrng_register() out of the probe routine into the scan routine. We need to call hwrng_register() after a suspend/restore cycle to re-register the device, but the scan function is not invoked for the restore. Add the call to hwrng_register() to virtio_restore().
