The ARM architected TRNG firmware interface, described in ARM spec DEN0098[1], defines an ARM SMCCC based interface to a true random number generator, provided by firmware. This can be discovered via the SMCCC >=v1.1 interface, and provides up to 192 bits of entropy per call.
Hook this SMC call into arm64's arch_get_random_*() implementation, coming to the rescue when the CPU does not implement the ARM v8.5 RNG system registers. For the detection, we piggy back on the PSCI/SMCCC discovery (which gives us the conduit to use: hvc or smc), then try to call the ARM_SMCCC_TRNG_VERSION function, which returns -1 if this interface is not implemented.
