You are right. However, this will essentially be changed to 8 in response to moving to just the TRNG in comments below.

Makes sense.  Typically we just use the TRNG to seed the LSFR, but I suppose there is no real reason to do this if max speed is not a concern (above 24Mbps which is max TRNG speed).  I'll convert the driver to just drop usage of the PRNG and only use the TRNG.

Good catch.  Will fix.

After a bit of testing, converting the driver to be pure TRNG does give good results with rngtest. Good call.  Will submit an update.
