Partially revert commit 5f501d555653 ("binfmt_elf: reintroduce using

At least ia64 has ET_EXEC PT_LOAD segments that are not virtual-address
contiguous (but _are_ file-offset contiguous). This would result in
giant mapping attempts to cover the entire span, including the virtual
address range hole. Disable total_mapping_size for ET_EXEC, which
reduces the MAP_FIXED_NOREPLACE coverage to only the first PT_LOAD:
$ readelf -lW /usr/bin/gcc

Ironically, this is the reverse of the problem that originally caused
problems with ET_EXEC and MAP_FIXED_NOREPLACE: overlaps. This problem
is
with holes. Future work could restore full coverage if
load_elf_binary()
were to perform mappings in a separate phase from the loading (where
it could resolve both overlaps and holes).

This does the trick! Thank you so much!!
