Now that drbg_prepare_hrng() doesn't do anything but to instantiate a jitterentropy crypto_rng instance, it looks a little odd to have the related error handling at its only caller, drbg_instantiate(). Move the handling of jitterentropy allocation failures from drbg_instantiate() close to the allocation itself in drbg_prepare_hrng(). There is no change in behaviour.
