Modified Files:
        src/sys/kern: kern_entropy.c

Log Message:
entropy(9): Request entropy after the softint is enabled.

Otherwise, there is a window during which interrupts are running, but
the softint is not, so if many interrupts queue (low-entropy) samples
early at boot, they might get dropped on the floor.  This could
happen, for instance, with a PCI RNG like ubsec(4) or hifn(4) which
requests entropy and processes it in its own hard interrupt handler.
