[virtio] [PATCH] virtio-rng: fix device/driver confusion

[Michael S. Tsirkin]

The point of rng is to give data to driver so of course
all buffers are driver readable. What shouldn't be there
is device readable buffers - this matches our terminology
elsewhere too (read/write-ability is from POV of device).
