There are a few nitpicks below, if you can address them great,
either way here's my

The reseed descriptor length is now smaller.
Memmory allocated by kmalloc() will probably be the same,
but code would be more readable.
If you want to use the same length for both descriptors,
I suggest renaming the define to CAAM_PRNG_MAX_DESC_LEN.

This is a "reseed" operation, not "generate".

memcpy() should be performed only when the HW executed the operation
successfully.
