Here is a small patch for 2.6.11 that adds a routine:
add_true_randomness(__u32 *buf, int nwords);

Hrm. This is getting pretty lame, if you can't take patches from the
-latest- stable release. It's pretty easy in BK:
bk clone -ql -rv2.6.11 linux-2.6 rng-2.6.11
cd rng-2.6.11
{ apply patch }
bk pull ../linux-2.6
Can you set up something like that?
Are we likely to see any in-kernel users of this?
We already have a hardware RNG system. This is completely unneeded.
