        Special thanks to Matt Sottek.  I did the "guts", he
        did the "brains" and all the testing.

-Change history:
-
-       Version 1.0.0:
-       * Merge Intel, AMD, VIA RNG drivers into one.
-         Further changelog in BitKeeper.
-
-       Version 0.9.8:
-       * Support other i8xx chipsets by adding 82801E detection
-       * 82801DB detection is the same as for 82801CA.
-
-       Version 0.9.7:
-       * Support other i8xx chipsets too (by adding 82801BA(M) and
-         82801CA(M) detection)
-
-       Version 0.9.6:
-       * Internal driver cleanups, prep for 1.0.0 release.
-
-       Version 0.9.5:
-       * Rip out entropy injection via timer.  It never ever worked,
-         and a better solution (rngd) is now available.
-
-       Version 0.9.4:
-       * Fix: Remove request_mem_region
-       * Fix: Horrible bugs in FIPS calculation and test execution
-
-       Version 0.9.3:
-       * Clean up rng_read a bit.
-       * Update i810_rng driver Web site URL.
-       * Increase default timer interval to 4 samples per second.
-       * Abort if mem region is not available.
-       * BSS zero-initialization cleanup.
-       * Call misc_register() from rng_init_one.
-       * Fix O_NONBLOCK to occur before we schedule.
-
-       Version 0.9.2:
-       * Simplify open blocking logic
-
-       Version 0.9.1:
-       * Support i815 chipsets too (Matt Sottek)
-       * Fix reference counting when statically compiled (prumpf)
-       * Rewrite rng_dev_read (prumpf)
-       * Make module races less likely (prumpf)
-       * Small miscellaneous bug fixes (prumpf)
-       * Use pci table for PCI id list
-
-       Version 0.9.0:
-       * Don't register a pci_driver, because we are really
-         using PCI bridge vendor/device ids, and someone
-         may want to register a driver for the bridge. (bug fix)
-       * Don't let the usage count go negative (bug fix)
-       * Clean up spinlocks (bug fix)
-       * Enable PCI device, if necessary (bug fix)
-       * iounmap on module unload (bug fix)
-       * If RNG chrdev is already in use when open(2) is called,
-         sleep until it is available.
-       * Remove redundant globals rng_allocated, rng_use_count
-       * Convert numeric globals to unsigned
-       * Module unload cleanup
-
-       Version 0.6.2:
-       * Clean up spinlocks.  Since we don't have any interrupts
-         to worry about, but we do have a timer to worry about,
-         we use spin_lock_bh everywhere except the timer function
-         itself.
-       * Fix module load/unload.
-       * Fix timer function and h/w enable/disable logic
-       * New timer interval sysctl
-       * Clean up sysctl names
