I was going to recommend a better $subject line, but now I see why it's vague. :( I would recommend breaking this patch up into three:
hwrng: amd - Access hardware via ioread32/iowrite32 hwrng: amd - Replace global variable with private struct hwrng: amd - Convert to new hwrng read() API
thx,
Jason.
