Arnd Bergmann cbd5021199 random: use offstack cpumask when necessary
[ Upstream commit 5d49f1a5bd ]

The entropy generation function keeps a local cpu mask on the stack,
which can trigger warnings in configurations with a large number of
CPUs:

    drivers/char/random.c:1292:20: error: stack frame size (1288)
    exceeds limit (1280) in 'try_to_generate_entropy' [-Werror,-Wframe-larger-than]

Use the cpumask interface to dynamically allocate it in those
configurations.

Fixes: 1c21fe00ed ("random: spread out jitter callback to different CPUs")

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 reStructuredText 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.
