This doesn't exactly answer the question, but it might help.

NetBSD's "pchb" device driver attempts to use RNG features in the
following devices (the third column in a NetBSD-internal identifier,
the fourth column is a PCI product ID):

product INTEL 82810E_MCH        0x7124  82810E Memory Controller Hub
product INTEL 82810_DC100_MCH   0x7122  82810-DC100 Memory Controller Hub
product INTEL 82810_MCH         0x7120  82810 Memory Controller Hub
product INTEL 82815_DC100_HUB   0x1100  82815 Hub
