So Linus proposed a clean solution which might be harder to backport
but looks better for 5.8. However the attached one addresses the issue
for me on arm64 and still works on x86_64, arm, mips. I think we should
go with this one first then apply Linus' one on top of it to be long
term proof, and backport only the first one. Linus ?

Subject: random: fix circular include dependency on arm64 after addition of
 percpu.h
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=latin1
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Daniel D?az and Kees Cook independently reported that commit f227e3ec3b5c
("random32: update the net random state on interrupt and activity") broke
arm64 due to a circular dependency on include files since the addition of
percpu.h in random.h.

The correct fix would definitely be to move all the prandom32 stuff out
of random.h but for backporting, a smaller solution is preferred. This
one replaces linux/percpu.h with asm/percpu.h, and this fixes the problem
on x86_64, arm64, arm, and mips. Note that moving percpu.h around didn't
change anything and that removing it entirely broke differently. When
backporting, such options might still be considered if this patch fails
to help.
