include/linux/pm_runtime.h pm_runtime_get_sync() description suggests to ... consider using pm_runtime_resume_and_get() instead of it, especially if its return value is checked by the caller, as this is likely to result in cleaner code. This is indeed better, switch to pm_runtime_resume_and_get() which correctly suspends the device again in case of failure. Also add error checking into the RNG driver in case pm_runtime_resume_and_get() does fail, which is currently not done, and it does detect sporadic -EACCES error return after resume, which would otherwise lead to a hang due to register access on un-resumed hardware. Now the read simply errors out and the system does not hang.
