      Update documentation for the hw_random support to be current:
      
       - Documentation/hw_random.txt has been updated to reflect the
         current code:  it's a framework now, a "core" with a small
         sysfs interface, that hardware-specific drivers plug in to.
         Text specific to Intel hardware is now at the end.
      
       - Kconfig now references the Documentation/hw_random.txt file
         and better explains what this really does.
      
      Both chunks of documentation now higlight the fact that the kernel entropy
      pool is maintained by "rngd", and this driver has nothing directly to do with
      that important task.

      Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
      even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
      archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
      3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
      git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
      infrastructure for it.
      
      Let it rip!
