Nah, easier to have check_unsafe_exec() return -EAGAIN in cases we care
about.

Anyway, completely untested patchset is in
git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs-2.6.git/ execve-mess
(the last 9 changesets of it).

WARNING: that's *NOT* for merge at the moment; this is not a pull request.

Review (and testing) would be welcome.

Shortlog of execve-related part:
Al Viro (6):
      Take fs_struct handling to new file (fs/fs_struct.c), sanitize chroot_fs_refs()
      New helper - current_umask()
      Get rid of indirect include of fs_struct.h
      Kill unsharing fs_struct in __set_personality()
      New locking/refcounting for fs_struct
      check_unsafe_exec() doesn't care about signal handlers sharing

Hugh Dickins (3):
      Don't bump fs_struct refcount for procfs accesses
      compat_do_execve should unshare_files
      fix setuid sometimes doesn't - files_struct

Diffstat (again, of execve-related stuff)
