powerpc/powernv: delay rng platform device creation until later in boot
commit
887502826549caa7e4215fd9e628f48f14c0825a upstream.
The platform device for the rng must be created much later in boot.
Otherwise it tries to connect to a parent that doesn't yet exist,
resulting in this splat:
[ 0.000478] kobject: '(null)' ((____ptrval____)): is not initialized, yet kobject_get() is being called.

This patch fixes the issue by doing the platform device creation inside
of machine_subsys_initcall.
