4d87a031c0 Large upgrade to the entropy device; mainly inspired by feedback
from many folk.

o The reseed process is now a kthread. With SMPng, kthreads are
  pre-emptive, so the annoying jerkiness of the mouse is gone.

o The data structures are protected by mutexes now, not splfoo()/splx().

o The cryptographic routines are broken out into their own subroutines.
  this facilitates review, and possible replacement if that is ever
  found necessary.
