David Brownell 537878d2c9 hw_random doc updates 
Update documentation for the hw_random support to be current:

 - Documentation/hw_random.txt has been updated to reflect the
   current code:  it's a framework now, a "core" with a small
   sysfs interface, that hardware-specific drivers plug in to.
   Text specific to Intel hardware is now at the end.

 - Kconfig now references the Documentation/hw_random.txt file
   and better explains what this really does.

Both chunks of documentation now higlight the fact that the kernel entropy
pool is maintained by "rngd", and this driver has nothing directly to do with
that important task.
