[PATCH] hwrng: core - Fix page fault dead lock on mmap-ed hwrng

[Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>]

There is a dead-lock in the hwrng device read path.  This triggers
when the user reads from /dev/hwrng into memory also mmap-ed from
/dev/hwrng.  The resulting page fault triggers a recursive read
which then dead-locks.

Fix this by using a stack buffer when calling copy_to_user.
