Style nit: could use | or ! as the regex delimiter to improve readability

Can we restrict this up-front somehow? I'd even be inclined to start out
with the enum we had in qemu-server. A generic path below /dev seems
prone to abuse at a first glance. Mapping.Modify for hardware RNG should
not ease access to other devices. And the check_rng_source() doesn't
currently offer any real protection either (just restricts the
/dev/hwrng case).
