When the membase and pci_dev pointer were moved to a new struct in priv,
the actual membase users were left untouched, and they started reading
out arbitrary memory behind the struct instead of registers. This
unfortunately turned the RNG into a constant number generator, depending
on the content of what was at that offset.
To fix this, update geode_rng_data_{read,present}() to also get the
membase via amd_geode_priv, and properly read from the right addresses
again.

Where was it applied? I don't see it neither in linus' tree nor in
char-misc. Wondering if it got stuck somewhere.
Best Regards,
