mainlining shenanigans

This adds a driver to communicate with the firmware running on the secure processor of the Turris Mox router, enabling the kernel to retrieve true random numbers from the Entropy Bit Generator and to read some information burned into eFuses when device was manufactured: and to sign messages with the ECDSA private key burned into each Turris Mox device when manufacturing. This also adds support to read other information burned into eFuses: - serial number - board version - MAC addresses - RAM size - ECDSA public key (this is not read directly from eFuses, rather it is computed by the firmware as pair to the burned private key) The source code of the firmware is open source and can be found at https://gitlab.labs.nic.cz/turris/mox-boot-builder/tree/master/wtmi The firmware is also able to, on demand, sign messages with the burned ECDSA private key, but since Linux's akcipher API is not yet stable (and therefore not exposed to userspace via netlink), this functionality is not supported yet.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
