Currently both setup_new_exec() and flush_old_exec() issue
a call to arch_pick_mmap_layout().
As setup_new_exec() and flush_old_exec() are always called
pairwise arch_pick_mmap_layout() is called twice.
This patch removes one call from setup_new_exec() to have
it only called once.

Changes between v1 and v2:
Pat reported that v1 broke IA32 emulation on x86_64.
It turned out that we have to keep the second call to
arch_pick_mmap_layout() and are free to remove the first
one. v1 did it the other way around.
This is needed because only the latter call will see all
current->personality flags.
