We have /proc/self/exe today. If I understand you correctly you would
like to do the equivalent of 'execve("/proc/self/exe", argv[], envp[])'
without having proc mounted.
The file descriptor is stored in mm->exe_file.
Probably the most straight forward implementation is to allow
execveat(AT_EXE_FILE, ...).
You can look at binfmt_misc for how to reopen an open file descriptor.

It took me a minute yes good catch.
