[PATCH] powerpc: get rid of #include <generated/compile.h>

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.

<genearated/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)

Fixes: 6a38ea1d7b94 ("powerpc/fsl_booke/32: randomize the kernel image offset")

If this gets into the mainline before -rc2 or -rc3,
I will base my kbuild work on top of this.
