arm64: Workaround circular dependency in pointer_auth.h
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
With the backport of f227e3e ("random32: update the net random
state on interrupt and activity") and its associated fixes, the
arm64 build explodes early:

In file included from ../include/linux/smp.h:67,

../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.
