description:
Fix two mistakes in entropy accounting.

1. When consolidating entropy from per-CPU pools, drop the amount
   pending to zero; otherwise the entropy consolidation thread might
   keep consolidating every second.

This uncovered a feedback loop with kern.entropy.depletion=1 and
on-demand entropy sources, which is that depleting the pool and then
requesting more from it causes the on-demand entropy sources to
trigger reseed, which causes cprng_fast/strong to request more which
depletes the pool again which causes on-demand entropy sources to
trigger reseed, and so on.

To work around this:

2. Set a rate limit on reseeding (advancing the entropy epoch) when
   kern.entropy.depletion=1; otherwise reseeding gets into a feedback
   loop when there are on-demand entropy sources like RDRAND/RDSEED.

(By default, kern.entropy.depletion=0, so this mainly only affects
systems where you're simulating what happens when /dev/random blocks
for testing.)
