did the "brains" and all the testing.

-Change history:
-
- Version 1.0.0:
- * Merge Intel, AMD, VIA RNG drivers into one.
- Further changelog in BitKeeper.
-
- Version 0.9.8:
- * Support other i8xx chipsets by adding 82801E detection
- * 82801DB detection is the same as for 82801CA.
-
- Version 0.9.7:
- * Support other i8xx chipsets too (by adding 82801BA(M) and
- 82801CA(M) detection)
-
- Version 0.9.6:
- * Internal driver cleanups, prep for 1.0.0 release.
-
- Version 0.9.5:
- * Rip out entropy injection via timer. It never ever worked,
- and a better solution (rngd) is now available.
-
- Version 0.9.4:
- * Fix: Remove request_mem_region
- * Fix: Horrible bugs in FIPS calculation and test execution
-
- Version 0.9.3:
- * Clean up rng_read a bit.
- * Update i810_rng driver Web site URL.
- * Increase default timer interval to 4 samples per second.
- * Abort if mem region is not available.
- * BSS zero-initialization cleanup.
- * Call misc_register() from rng_init_one.
- * Fix O_NONBLOCK to occur before we schedule.
-
- Version 0.9.2:
- * Simplify open blocking logic
-
- Version 0.9.1:
- * Support i815 chipsets too (Matt Sottek)
- * Fix reference counting when statically compiled (prumpf)
- * Rewrite rng_dev_read (prumpf)
- * Make module races less likely (prumpf)
- * Small miscellaneous bug fixes (prumpf)
- * Use pci table for PCI id list
-
- Version 0.9.0:
- * Don't register a pci_driver, because we are really
- using PCI bridge vendor/device ids, and someone
- may want to register a driver for the bridge. (bug fix)
- * Don't let the usage count go negative (bug fix)
- * Clean up spinlocks (bug fix)
- * Enable PCI device, if necessary (bug fix)
- * iounmap on module unload (bug fix)
- * If RNG chrdev is already in use when open(2) is called,
- sleep until it is available.
- * Remove redundant globals rng_allocated, rng_use_count
- * Convert numeric globals to unsigned
- * Module unload cleanup
-
- Version 0.6.2:
- * Clean up spinlocks. Since we don't have any interrupts
- to worry about, but we do have a timer to worry about,
- we use spin_lock_bh everywhere except the timer function
- itself.
- * Fix module load/unload.
- * Fix timer function and h/w enable/disable logic
- * New timer interval sysctl
- * Clean up sysctl names
