The rng structure contains the quality field which tells how many bits of entropy can be obtained from 1024 bits read from a device. With the quality value set the hw_random framework starts a kernel thread to feed the entropy pool in the CRNG, which helps to initialize it quickly especially during boot.
Łukasz Stelmach (2): hwrng: iproc-rng200 - Set the quality value hwrng: exynos - Set the quality value
