Subject: Re: [PATCH 1/1] vmgenid: emit uevent when VMGENID updates

Like the other patch, and as discussed before too, I don't think this
has any business being part of (virtual) hardware drivers, and instead
belongs in random.c, which might receive these notifications from a
variety of devices, and can thus synchronize things accordingly.
Please stop posting more of these same approaches. Same nack as the
other ones.
