FYI,
By putting your node into omap34xx.dtsi and omap36xx.dtsi along with
the following, I can get the RNG to work on an OMAP3530 and a DM3730.
diff --git a/arch/arm/boot/dts/omap34xx-omap36xx-clocks.dtsi
b/arch/arm/boot/dts/omap34xx-omap36xx-clocks.dtsi

};
I tried doing the same for am3517, but it doesn't appear to work. In
fact, the board hangs at boot with no splat, so I assume that some
clock isn't running and causing a hang. Figure 4-50 in the AM3517 TRM
shows the security_l4_iclk2, so I wonder if the HW mods for AES, SHA,
etc are doing something to enable this clock. Those HWmods are
disabled on AM3517. I tried turning on the hwmods for them before
without success, but I'll try it again.
