As far as I can tell, this will break if the user wants to use
".mybinary" or ".mydir/mybinary" as the name of their init program.

For that matter, it would break "...prog" or "...somedir/prog", which
would be strange but not something the kernel should prevent.

I don't think this code should be attempting to recreate
relative-to-absolute filename resolution.
