Subject: [PATCH 18/18] prandom: Include <linux/percpu.h>

<linux/percpu.h> include was removed in d9f29deb7fe8 ("prandom:
Remove unused include") from prandom.h because this inclusion
broke arm64 due to a circular dependency on include files. Previous
patches resolved this issue.

__percpu tag is currently defined in include/linux/compiler_types.h,
so there is no direct need for the inclusion of <linux/percpu.h>.
However, in [1] we would like to repurpose __percpu tag as a named
address space qualifier, where __percpu macro uses defines from
<linux/percpu.h>.

This patch is basically a full revert of d9f29deb7fe8
("prandom: Remove unused include").
