As stated in README.rst, in order to resolve errors with linker errors,
'LDLIBS=-static' should be used. Most problems will be solved by this
option, but in the case of urandom_read, this won't fix the problem. So
the Makefile is currently implemented to strip the 'static' option when
compiling the urandom_read. However, stripping this static option isn't
configured properly on $(LDLIBS) correctly, which is now causing errors
on static compilation.

    # LDLIBS=-static ./vmtest.sh
    ld.lld: error: attempted static link of dynamic object liburandom_read.so
    clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)
    make: *** [Makefile:190: /linux/tools/testing/selftests/bpf/urandom_read] Error 1
    make: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....

This commit fixes this problem by configuring the strip with $(LDLIBS).

Do we need the same also for liburandom_read.so target's $(LDLIBS) further above?

Oops, I didn't notice that.
I'll apply the review and send the next version of patch!
