The driver for the "Picochip picoXcell true random number generator" was
added in v2.6.39. Its Kconfig symbol has always depended on
PICOXCELL_PC3X3. But that Kconfig symbol has never been part of the
tree. This means this driver has never been buildable. Let's remove it.
It can be re-added if its dependencies are actually part of the tree.

HW_RANDOM_ATMEL should not only default to ARCH_AT91, it should depend
on it. This driver is useless on other architectures.
Likewise, HW_RANDOM_EXYNOS should depend on ARCH_EXYNOS, as it it
useless on other architectures.
Also set the default to HW_RANDOM for the few architecture-specific
drivers which didn't have it yet, for consistency.

This moves the MTU timer driver from arch/arm/plat-nomadik
to drivers/clocksource and moves the header file to the
platform_data directory.
As this moves the last file being compiled to an object out
of arch/arm/plat-nomadik, we have to "turn off the light"
and delete the plat-nomadik directory, because it is not
allowed to have an empty Makefile in a plat-* directory.
This is probably also a desired side effect of depopulating
the arch/arm directory of drivers. Luckily we have just
deleted all the <plat/*> include files prior to this so
by moving the last one we may delete the directory.
After this all the Ux500 and Nomadik device drivers live
outside of the arch/arm hierarchy.

Some hardware platforms, the TS-7800[1] is one for example, can
supply the kernel with an entropy source, albeit a slow one for
TS-7800 users, by just reading a particular IO address. This
source must not be read above a certain rate otherwise the quality
suffers.
The driver is then hooked into by calling
platform_device_(register|add|del) passing a structure similar to:
------
static struct timeriomem_rng_data ts78xx_ts_rng_data = {
.address = (u32 *__iomem) TS_RNG,
.period = 1000000, /* one second */
};

.name = "timeriomem_rng",
.id = -1,
.dev = {
.platform_data = &ts78xx_ts_rng_data,

Note that by itself, having a "hardware" random generator does very
little: you should probably run "rngd" in your guest to feed this into
the kernel entropy pool.
Included:
virtio_rng: dont use vmalloced addresses for virtio
If virtio_rng is build as a module, random_data is an address
in vmalloc space. As virtio expects guest real addresses, this
can cause any kind of funny behaviour, so lets allocate
random_data dynamically with kmalloc.

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.
