However, there's a backwards-compatibility requirement: kernel should work with older MC f/w versions. To fix this, my suggestion is to force RNG (re)initialization in case MC f/w is present and its version is < 10.20.1, i.e.: if ((!ctrlpriv->mc_en || (fsl_mc_get_version() < "10.20.1")) && rng_vid >= 4) { [...] fsl_mc_get_version() - I've made this up, it currently doesn't exist, it should be added in fsl-mc bus driver (drivers/bus/fsl-mc). We will provide this shortly, the plan being to integrate this change as part of this series. Thanks, Horia
