Actually, I didn't miss it.  But I've polished the driver a little more,
here are the patches.

virtio: An entropy device, as suggested by hpa.

Note that by itself, having a "hardware" random generator does very
little: you should probably run "rngd" in your guest to feed this into
the kernel entropy pool.
