Is this really a pseudo-RNG? If so it needs to be moved over to
the algif_rng interface.

Despite the register name (PRNG_ registers prefix) the IP is using FIPS
approved algorithm and we can claim that this is true hardware entropy
generator.

Whether your RNG is a PRNG or not has nothing to do with the
algorithm you use.  No algorithm can generate entropy out of thin
air.
