Maybe you should instead use WARN_ONCE?
Because from what I understand in the datasheet, CEIS bit indicates and 
error with clock configuration.
If that happens, it is likely the same error will occur each time this 
function will be called.

Maybe you could perform this check before the error detection, as if 
!sr, the HW error condition will be always false.

Couldn't we use "_relaxed" versions of readl/writel?
I might save some not needed barriers.

As detected with Coccinelle by Fengguang build system, you could simplify:
return hwrng_register(&priv->rng);
