[PATCH] hwrng: core - reject unknown RNG names

[PATCH] hwrng: core - reject unknown RNG names

[Thorsten Blum]

In rng_current_store(), err is 0 after successfully locking rng_mutex,
and if the requested RNG name cannot be found, the function reports
success even though the current RNG was not changed.

Set err = -ENODEV before searching the RNG list to reject unknown names.
