Herbert Xu 55db8387a5 hwrng: via_rng - Fix memory scribbling on some CPUs
It has been reported that on at least one Nano CPU the xstore
instruction will write as many as 16 bytes of data to the output
buffer.

This causes memory corruption as we use rng->priv which is only
4-8 bytes long.

This patch fixes this by using an intermediate buffer on the stack
with at least 16 bytes and aligned to a 16-byte boundary.

The problem was observed on the following processor:

processor	: 0
vendor_id	: CentaurHauls
cpu family	: 6
model		: 15
model name	: VIA Nano processor U2250 (1.6GHz Capable)
