Replace the check for zero harvest_mask with new check for empty string. This allows one to specify harvest_mask="0" that disables harversting entropy from all but "pure" sources. Exact bit values for "pure" sources differ for stable/12 and later branches, so it is handy to use zero. The check for zero pre-dates introduction of "pure" non-maskable sources Use empty string to disable altering sysctl kern.random.harvest.mask. Note that notion of "pure" random sources is not documented in user level manual pages yet. Still, it helps to extend battery life for hardware with embedded "Intel Secure Key RNG" by disabling all other sources. Note that no defaults changed and default behaviour is not affected.
