3.15-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Amit Shah <amit.shah@xxxxxxxxxx>
commit d3cc7996473a7bdd33256029988ea690754e4e2a upstream.
Commit d9e7972619334 "hwrng: add randomness to system from rng sources"
added a call to rng_get_data() from the hwrng_register() function.
However, some rng devices need initialization before data can be read
from them.
This commit makes the call to rng_get_data() depend on no init fn
pointer being registered by the device. If an init function is
registered, this call is made after device init.
