Commit "d9e7972 hwrng: add randomness to system from rng sources"
exposed a bug in the bcm2835-rng driver resulting in boot failure
on Raspberry Pi due to the following oops:
[ 28.261523] BUG: soft lockup - CPU#0 stuck for 23s! [swapper:1]
[ 28.271058]
[ 28.275958] CPU: 0 PID: 1 Comm: swapper Not tainted 3.14.0+ #11
[ 28.285374] task: db480000 ti: db484000 task.ti: db484000
[ 28.294279] PC is at bcm2835_rng_read+0x28/0x48
[ 28.302276] LR is at hwrng_register+0x1a8/0x238
.
.
.
The RNG h/w is not completely initialized and enabled before
hwrng_register() is called and so the bcm2835_rng_read() fails.
Fix this by making the warmup/enable writes before registering
the RNG source with the hwrng core.
