Subject: [PATCH 5.10 83/84] powerpc/book3e: get rid of #include <generated/compile.h>

From: Masahiro Yamada <masahiroy@...nel.org>

commit 7ad4bd887d27c6b6ffbef216f19c19f8fe2b8f52 upstream.

You cannot include <generated/compile.h> here because it is generated
in init/Makefile but there is no guarantee that it happens before
arch/powerpc/mm/nohash/kaslr_booke.c is compiled for parallel builds.

The places where you can reliably include <generated/compile.h> are:

  - init/          (because init/Makefile can specify the dependency)
  - arch/*/boot/   (because it is compiled after vmlinux)

Commit f231e4333312 ("hexagon: get rid of #include <generated/compile.h>")
fixed the last breakage at that time, but powerpc re-added this.

<generated/compile.h> was unneeded because 'build_str' is almost the
same as 'linux_banner' defined in init/version.c

Let's copy the solution from MIPS.
(get_random_boot() in arch/mips/kernel/relocate.c)
