Subject: [PATCH] hw_random: Make explicit that max >= 32 always
Date: Fri, 18 Nov 2016 23:00:10 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20161118173010.5448-1-prasannatsmkumar@gmail.com> (raw)
As hw_random core calls ->read with max > 32 or more, make it explicit.
Also remove checks involving 'max' being less than 8.
