The commit97e3d26b5e("x86/mm: Randomize per-cpu entry area") fixed an omission of KASLR on CPU entry areas. It doesn't take into account KASLR switches though, which may result in unintended non-determinism when a user wants to avoid it (e.g. debugging, benchmarking). Generate only a single combination of CPU entry areas offsets -- the linear array that existed prior randomization when KASLR is turned off. Since we have3f148f3318("x86/kasan: Map shadow for percpu pages on demand") and followups, we can use the more relaxed guard kasrl_enabled() (in contrast to kaslr_memory_enabled()).

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.
