	 * Linux compatibility: We have two choices for handling Linux's
	 * GRND_INSECURE.
	 *
	 * 1. We could ignore it completely (like GRND_RANDOM).  However, this
	 * might produce the surprising result of GRND_INSECURE requests
	 * blocking, when the Linux API does not block.
	 *
	 * 2. Alternatively, we could treat GRND_INSECURE requests as requests
	 * for GRND_NONBLOCK.  Here, the surprising result for Linux programs
	 * is that invocations with unseeded random(4) will produce EAGAIN,
	 * rather than garbage.
	 *
	 * Honoring the flag in the way Linux does seems fraught.  If we
	 * actually use the output of a random(4) implementation prior to
	 * seeding, we leak some entropy about the initial seed to attackers.
	 * This seems unacceptable -- it defeats the purpose of blocking on
	 * initial seeding.
	 *
	 * Secondary to that concern, before seeding we may have arbitrarily
	 * little entropy collected; producing output from zero or a handful of
	 * entropy bits does not seem particularly useful to userspace.
	 *
	 * If userspace can accept garbage, insecure non-random bytes, they can
	 * create their own insecure garbage with srandom(time(NULL)) or
	 * similar.  Asking the kernel to produce it from the secure
	 * getrandom(2) API seems inane.
	 *
	 * We elect to emulate GRND_INSECURE as an alternative spelling of
	 * GRND_NONBLOCK (2).
