Modified files:
sys/dev/randomdev yarrow.c
Log:
One should never allocate 4-kilobyte structs and such on the interrupt
stack. It's bad for your machine's health.
Make the two huge structs in reseed() static to prevent crashes. This
is the bug that people have been running into and panic()ing on for the
past few days.
