commit 3c6f33b7273a ("mm/ksm: support fork/exec for prctl") inherits
MMF_VM_MERGE_ANY flag when a task calls execve(). Howerver, it doesn't
create the mm_slot, so ksmd will not try to scan this task.

To fix it, allocate and add the mm_slot to ksm_mm_head in __bprm_mm_init()
when the mm has MMF_VM_MERGE_ANY flag.

Can we also please extend the KSM selftest? tools/testing/selftests/mm/ksm_functional_tests.c

We do have test_prctl_fork_exec(), but in ksm_fork_exec_child() we only test if the flag is set, not if de-duplication using the ksm daemon actually works.

OK, I will try to extend the selftest.
