m68k: Process bootinfo records before saving them
The RNG seed boot record is memzeroed after processing, in order to
preserve forward secrecy. By saving the bootinfo for procfs prior to
that, forward secrecy is violated, since it becomes possible to recover
past states. So, save the bootinfo block only after first processing
them.
