Subject: [PATCH] powerpc/powernv: utilising darn instruction for get_random_seed on p9

From: Matt Brown <[email-masked]>
Date: Fri, 31 Mar 2017 10:20:23 +1100

Currently ppc_md.get_random_seed uses the powernv_get_random_long function.
A guest calling this function would have to go through the hypervisor. The
'darn' instruction, introduced in power 9, allows us to bypass this by
directly obtaining a value from the mmio region.

This patch adds an alternative function for ppc_md.get_random_seed on p9,
utilising the darn instruction.
