Currently the controller is using jrand48() to generate pseudo random numbers. For RIOT builds this commit switches to the RIOT build-in PRNG API, as this has two benefits: i) it saves 500bytes of flash and ii) jrand48() internally uses malloc, which has been source to runtime failures in the past.
