That's more serious, then.  That means something on your system is pulling
a comparatively huge number of bits from the general-purpose kernel RNG
instance, and nothing's putting enough bits into the pool to rekey it.

Not much uses the kernel cprng on most systems.  I haven't actually seen
this message show up on a briefly-running system before.
