This patch set adds Random Number Generator (RNG) support 
for the Nuvoton NPCM Baseboard Management Controller (BMC).

The RNG driver we use power consumption when the RNG 
is not required.

The NPCM RNG driver tested on NPCM750 evaluation board.

   called to enable the hwrng before add_early_randomness called.
 - Remove quality dt-binding parameter in the driver and documentation.
 - Disable CONFIG_PM if devm_hwrng_register failed.
 - Remove owner setting in the driver struct.

Changes since version 1:
 - Define timout in real-world units.
