Subject: [PATCH resend 2/2] tpm,random: Call add_drbg_randomness after selftest

TPMs contain a DRBG.  Use it.

On some but not all TPMs, this will also call add_drbg_randomness on
resume.  As a future improvement, this could be tweaked to cover all
of them, but I'll leave that to someone more familiar with the
individual drivers.
