With this patch in linux-next, the qemu m68k:mcf5208evb emulation
fails to boot. The error is:
Run /init as init process
Failed to execute /init (error -7)
Run /sbin/init as init process
Starting init: /sbin/init exists but couldn't execute it (error -7)
Run /etc/init as init process
Run /bin/init as init process
Run /bin/sh as init process
Starting init: /bin/sh exists but couldn't execute it (error -7)
Kernel panic - not syncing: No working init found. Try passing init= option to kernel. See Linux Documentation/admin-guide/init.rst for guidance.

bisect essentially points to the merge of the for-next/execve branch;
see below. Subsequent failures are false positives. Branch analysis
then pointed to this patch. The image boots after reverting this patch
(or after reverting the entire merge).
