(nitpick: no need for default n)

I think that's good for testing. It would have been nice to be able to
set some limits for the random offset but I can't figure out an easy way
to do this via Kconfig (maybe with additional options).

I don't think we should include this. It encourages people to set
specific offsets for their SoCs.
