Pull up following revision(s) (requested by riastradh in ticket #937):

        sys/dev/random.c: revision 1.11

entropy(9): New function entropy_consolidate_sig.

This is the same as entropy_consolidate, but it returns EINTR if
interrupted by a signal and 0 otherwise.  (entropy_consolidate can
already be interrupted by a signal -- it just doesn't tell you if it
was.)

Eventually these will be merged into a single entropy_consolidate
that returns the error code, but adding a new symbol first makes it
safe for pullup-10.
PR kern/58646: /dev/random, kern.entropy.*: signal bugs

/dev/random: Fix two signal bugs.
1. If a long write to /dev/random is interrupted by a signal, it may
   proceed to sleep on the entropy source lock instead of returning
   promptly.
   => Don't try to consolidate entropy if we've already been
      interrupted by a signal.
2. If a write to /dev/random is interrupted by a signal while
   sleeping on the entropy source lock, it may fail to report EINTR.
   => Pass through EINTR from entropy consolidation via new
      entropy_consolidate_sig function.

kern.entropy.consolidate, ioctl(RNDCTL): Fail with EINTR on signal.

This can happen if another thread is currently running consolidation
and has the entropy source lock held.  Use the new function
entropy_consolidate_sig to get at EINTR.

kern.entropy.gather: Fail with EINTR on signal.

Just don't throw away the error code we already have!
