Dominik Brodowski a43bed8220 hwrng: core - credit entropy for low quality sources of randomness
In case the entropy quality is low, there may be less than one bit to
credit in the call to add_hwgenerator_randomness(): The number of bytes
returned by rng_get_data() multiplied by the current quality (in entropy
bits per 1024 bits of input) must be larger than 128 to credit at least
one bit. However, imx-rngc.c sets the quality to 19, but may return less
than 32 bytes; hid_u2fzero.c sets the quality to 1; and users may override
the quality setting manually.

In case there is less than one bit to credit, keep track of it and add
that credit to the next iteration.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
