OK I've checked it again and properly this time and I've check qemu command
line too:

  -chardev socket,id=charrng0,host=localhost,port=4466,server,nowait
  -object rng-egd,id=objrng0,chardev=charrng0
  -device virtio-rng-pci,rng=objrng0,id=rng0,bus=pci.2,addr=0x2

So the dependency is clear and yes this patch was making it wrong.  I've for
some reason thought that the objAlias means a different object, sigh, shame
on me :)
