The LRNG /proc interface provides the same files as the legacy
/dev/random. These files behave identically. Yet, all files are
documented at [1].
Why?
I am not sure here: are you referring to the documentation? Or the one 
additional file?

If it is the documentation, do you want me to add it to the patch description? 
I initially did not add it as these files were present and seemingly known 
what they provide. But I would add that documentation to the patch description 
if this is desired.

If it is the additional file, should I move it to another place like a sysfs 
interface?

Thank you.

Ciao
Stephan
