Subject: [PATCH v2 1/6] hwrng: imx-rngc - reasonable timeout for selftest

Set a more reasonable timeout for the rngc selftest.

According to the reference manual, "The self test takes approximately
29,000 cycles to complete." With the rngc peripheral clock running at
66.5 MHz, this would be 436us. Let's use 1.5ms insteaf of 3sec for the
timeout.

- adjust timeouts before we switch to polling
