While reworking the archrandom handling, commitd349ab99ee("random: handle archrandom with multiple longs") switched to the non-early archrandom helpers in random_init(), which broke initialization of the entropy pool from the arm64 random generator. Indeed at that point the arm64 CPU features, which verify that all CPUs have compatible capabilities, are not finalized so arch_get_random_seed_longs() is unsuccessful. Instead random_init() should use the _early functions, which check only the boot CPU on arm64. On other architectures the _early functions directly call the normal ones.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
