Ok, this makes sense since you are using /dev/hwrng. This device does
not exist because the CCP support in the ccp driver did not create one.
It appears that the BIOS has blocked access to the MMIO range for the
CCP so that during initialization, when attempting to read the number of
queues available, 0xffffffff is read instead of the actual number of
queues available, which as Jason noted, results in the "broken BIOS"
message.

This may not matter, though. I don't know if this version of the ASP/CCP
device (1022:15df) provides any queues to the OS to use.

The fact that there is no /dev/hwrng device is not a kernel bug, though.

Thanks,
Tom
