3.16.7-ckt1 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Amos Kong <akong@xxxxxxxxxx>
commit f49819560f53b7f3a596a8ea2e6764dc86695b62 upstream.
Before we really unregister the hwrng device, reading will get stuck if
the virtio device is reset. We should return error for reading when we
start to remove the device.
