TRNG_NO_ENTROPY was unused when introduced and now. This is also caught by
GCC (W=2):
arch/arm64/kvm/trng.c:17: warning: macro "TRNG_NO_ENTROPY" is not used [-Wunused-macros]
17 | #define TRNG_NO_ENTROPY ((unsigned long)-3)

This return value is defined by the TRNG SMCCC spec (Arm DEN0098) so I'd
rather just keep it around given that it's not causing any problems.

That's an architectural definition that doesn't cause any problem.
If anything, that's documentation.
We have *tons* of other definitions with no user all over the
arm64 code. They save the exact same purpose.
