This also breaks the aarch64 ubuntu-20.04 GitHub build, as its LLVM
doesn’t know about the RNG extension. Can you please stop breaking the
arm64 kernel build with older LLVM, this is far from the first time
it’s happened, and some of those never got fixed upstream, we just had
to hack around them downstream.
