[PATCH] mtd stresstest: Fix random number generation

the random number generation in the mtd stresstest was changed from a
homebrew generator to random32. random32 generates unsigned random
numbers, but the values are assigned to signed integers. This results
in negative offsets, eraseblocks and writesized. Fix it by using unsigned
integers for these variables instead.

This is broken since:

    mtd: tests: use random32 instead of home-brewed generator

    This is a clean-up patch which removes the own pseudo-random numbers generator
    from the speed- and stress-tests and makes them use the 'random32()' generator
    instead.
