Modern versions of FVP_Base_RevC-2xAEMvA contain a Virtio RNG device, use of which can dramatically speed up the time taken for Linux to initialize its CRNG, from 10s of seconds in some cases, to instant. This improves the debug cycle significantly. However, there are 2 barriers to getting people to use it. The first is that the defconfig doesn't have the required driver. The second is that the device is disabled in the device tree (for back-compat since older versions of the FVP don't have the device). Here we solve the first issue.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
