Cannot be __init anymore - now rng->init could be called at any time.

Also, there is another problem with putting this function into
rng->init - if another RNG has been registered when this module is
loaded, ->init will not be called during hwrng_register(), so the
module load will succeed even if the chipset does not have RNG
hardware.

Again, __init is wrong.

This __init is wrong too.
