Just because potential attacks exist doesn't mean it isn't a solved problem in practice.
There are plenty of well-research PRNG algorithms out there, some of which are used in very high-profile applications like TLS and have been exposed to hostile parties for over a decade. If you are building an HSM you are almost guaranteed to already have a battle-hardened implementation of one lying around.
