Subject: [GIT PULL] random number generator fixes for 6.2-rc1, part 2

Hi Linus,

As mentioned in the first pull for 6.2-rc1, this second late pull request has
two remaining changes that are now possible after you merged a few other
trees:

- #include <asm/archrandom.h> can be removed from random.h now, making the
  direct use of the arch_random_* API more of a private implementation detail
  between the archs and random.c, rather than something for general consumers.

- Two additional uses of prandom_u32_max() snuck in during the initial phase
  of pulls, so these have been converted to get_random_u32_below(), and now
  the deprecated prandom_u32_max() alias -- which was just a wrapper around
  get_random_u32_below() -- can be removed.

In addition, there is one fix:

- Check efi_rt_services_supported() before attempting to use an EFI runtime
  function. This affected EFI systems that disable runtime services yet still
  boot via EFI (e.g. the reporter's Dell arm64 laptop), as well systems where
  EFI runtime services have been forcibly disabled, such as on PREEMPT_RT. On
  those machines, a very early and hard to diagnose crash would happen,
  preventing boot.

Please pull.

Thanks,
Jason
