+Subject: hw_random: make buffer usable in scatterlist.
+
+From: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
+
+commit f7f154f1246ccc5a0a7e9ce50932627d60a0c878 upstream.
+
+virtio_rng feeds the randomness buffer handed by the core directly
+into the scatterlist, since commit bb347d98079a547e80bd4722dee1de61e4dca0e8.
+
+However, if CONFIG_HW_RANDOM=m, the static buffer isn't a linear address
+(at least on most archs).  We could fix this in virtio_rng, but it's actually
+far easier to just do it in the core as virtio_rng would have to allocate
+a buffer every time (it doesn't know how much the core will want to read).
