When compiling the DRBG statically into the kernel, the testmgr
allocation of the DRBG may be done at a time the Jitter RNG is
not available. The testmgr instantiates a number of DRBGs for performing
testing which may cause a flurry of logs about unavailable Jitter RNG.
Note, the Jitter RNG is not needed for the testmgr operation anyways.
