Subject: [PATCH 4/6] hw_random: only set cur_rng_set_by_user if it is working
Date: Mon, 24 Jan 2022 21:29:49 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220124202951.28579-4-linux@dominikbrodowski.net> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20220124202951.28579-1-linux@dominikbrodowski.net>

In case the user-specified rng device is not working, it is not used;
therefore cur_rng_set_by_user must not be set to 1.
