Any thought? > It is quite unlikely that any other architecture would attempt to compile any arm64 code (which is the only code touched by commit 585524081ecd). Also, commit 585524081ecd fixes a different problem caused by the recursive inclusion of asm/archrandom.h. On top of that, I think using arch_get_random_seed_long_early() would be much cleaner than the current code since it doesn't override/bypass ARCH_RANDOM. Let's do it this way: I'll submit an alternate patch using arch_get_random_seed_long_early(). This way Linus can decide how to proceed, and we don't have to go back and forth.
