Marcus Shawcroft 954baea90b random: Restructure RANDOM Kconfig
Restructure the RANDOM Kconfig to match the structure used in other
drivers with a single top level menu.  Move the true random number
generators to appear first in the menu, with pseudo generators at the
bottom.  Do not present pseudo generators if a true random generator
is presented.

This change implies that tests, samples and applications that require
the random driver interface must now select CONFIG_RANDOM_GENERATOR.

In order for tests and samples to build (and run) on platforms that
have no random driver it remains necessary to select
the CONFIG_TEST_RANDOM_GENERATOR.

Note that CONFIG_TEST_RANDOM_GENERATOR retains its original purpose of
enabling a random driver that delivers non random numbers for the
purpose of testing only.

menuconfig RANDOM_GENERATOR

Include RANDOM drivers in system config.

source "drivers/random/Kconfig.ksdk"
config RANDOM_HAS_DRIVER
bool
default n
help
This is an option to be enabled by individual random driver
to signal that there is a true random driver.
config TEST_RANDOM_GENERATOR
bool
prompt "Non-random number generator"
depends on RANDOM_GENERATOR && ! RANDOM_HAS_DRIVER
default n
help
This option signifies that the kernel's random number APIs are
permitted to return values that are not truly random.
This capability is provided for testing purposes, when a truly random
number generator is not available. The non-random number generator
should not be used in a production environment.
config X86_TSC_RANDOM_GENERATOR
bool
prompt "x86 timestamp counter based number generator"
depends on TEST_RANDOM_GENERATOR && X86
default y
help
This options enables number generator based on timestamp counter
of x86 boards, obtained with rdtsc instruction.
config TIMER_RANDOM_GENERATOR
bool
prompt "System timer clock based number generator"
depends on TEST_RANDOM_GENERATOR && !X86_TSC_RANDOM_GENERATOR
default y
help
This options enables number generator based on system timer
clock. This number generator is not random and used for
testing only.
