The sahara driver use two dma_map_sg path according to SG are chained

Since dma_map_sg can handle both case, clean the code with all
references to sg chained.
Thus removing the sahara_sha_unmap_sg function.

If we attempt to use sysfs to change the current RNG in the usual
way i.e. issuing something like:
`echo 8a8a000.rng > /sys/devices/virtual/misc/hw_random/rng_current`
... it will fail because the code doesn't currently take the '\n'
into consideration. Well, now it does.

In April 2009, commit d405640 ("Driver Core: misc: add node name support
for misc devices.") inadvertently changed the device node name from
/dev/hw_random to /dev/hwrng. Since 6 years has passed since the change
it seems unpractical to change it back, as this node name is probably
considered ABI by now. So instead, we'll just change the Kconfig help
to match the current situation.
NB: It looks like rng-tools have already been updated.

Pull block updates from Jens Axboe:
"This is a bit bigger than it should be, but I could (did) not want to
send it off last week due to both wanting extra testing, and expecting
a fix for the bounce regression as well. In any case, this contains:
- Fix for the blk-merge.c compilation warning on gcc 5.x from me.
- A set of back/front SG gap merge fixes, from me and from Sagi.
This ensures that we honor SG gapping for integrity payloads as
well.
- Two small fixes for null_blk from Matias, fixing a leak and a
capacity propagation issue.
- A blkcg fix from Tejun, fixing a NULL dereference.
- A fast clone optimization from Ming, fixing a performance
regression since the arbitrarily sized bio's were introduced.
- Also from Ming, a regression fix for bouncing IOs"

Commit 505a666ee3fc ("writeback: plug writeback in wb_writeback() and
writeback_inodes_wb()") has us holding a plug during writeback_sb_inodes,
which increases the merge rate when relatively contiguous small files
are written by the filesystem. It helps both on flash and spindles.
For an fs_mark workload creating 4K files in parallel across 8 drives,
this commit improves performance ~9% more by unplugging before calling
cond_resched(). cond_resched() doesn't trigger an implicit unplug, so
explicitly getting the IO down to the device before scheduling reduces
latencies for anyone waiting on clean pages.
It also cuts down on how often we use kblockd to unplug, which means
less work bouncing from one workqueue to another.
Many more details about how we got here:
