Hi 
This API is very ARM platform specific.

I don't see any interface like GetVersion or GetUUID is defined in 
800-90A/90B/90C. 
What it is following is "Arm True Random Number Generator Firmware, Interface 
1.0". As such, I feel uncomfortable to define TrngLib in MdePkg.

I have raised my concern before. My recommend is to move ArmPkg, for example 
ArmTrngLib.



Thank you
Yao Jiewen
