Can you rework this logic to look more like the arm64 one? I think
it's more readable as:

#ifdef CONFIG_COMPAT
    if (mmap_is_ia32())
            rnd = (unsigned long)get_random_int() % (1 << mmap_rnd_compat_bits);
    else
#endif
            rnd = (unsigned long)get_random_int() % (1 << mmap_rnd_bits);
