Looks good from the point of integration into the driver framework.
I can't judge the hwrng specific parts, but don't see anything
fundamentally wrong there.

I would think that it's not strictly an error to be running on some other
hardware than yours ;-)
Just remove the printk here.

This can be done in one step with the new 'of_iomap' function.

This printk should have a KERN_ERROR or similar level.
Ideally, replace all instances of printk in your driver with 'dev_err',
'dev_info' or similar calls from <linux/device.h>.
