minor nit (so don't submit another version just to fix this):
This should be Supported, no?

Is "STARFIVE" a bit too general of a name here and in the Kconfig entry?
I don't have a TRM for the JH7100, but this name (and the Kconfig text)
would give me the impression that I can use it there too.
Does this driver support both?

This was only enabled after the only goto for this label, does it
serve a purpose?
I know little about runtime PM, it just caught my eye.
I looked at the other rng drivers that had calls to pm_runtime_enable(),
but they all seem to do their pm enablement _before_ calling
hwrng_register().
Again, I am not familiar with runtime PM, but curious why you are doing
things differently, that's all.

Thanks,
