[PATCH 5.7 6/6] [PATCH] arm64: Workaround circular dependency in pointer_auth.h

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Wed Aug 05 2020 - 16:09:08 EST


From: Marc Zyngier <maz@xxxxxxxxxx>

With the backport of f227e3ec3b5c ("random32: update the net random
state on interrupt and activity") and its associated fixes, the
arm64 build explodes early:

from ../arch/arm64/kernel/asm-offsets.c:10:
../arch/arm64/include/asm/smp.h:100:29: error: field ‘ptrauth_key’ has
incomplete type

This is due to struct ptrauth_keys_kernel not being defined before
we transitively include asm/smp.h from linux/random.h.

Paper over it by moving the inclusion of linux/random.h *after* the
type has been defined.
