This is a 3.16-only patch. The linux.git fix is
5c06273401f2eb7b290cadbae18ee00f8f65e893, which fixes this issue in a
different way.
Amos reported using multiple virtio-rng devices cause boot to freeze
even after the recent fixes. We need the probe_done test per device
rather than just once for the driver.
