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.

But now, would we revert what insert_vm_struct() did?

We're freeing the VMA later, but we might have accounted memory.


What would be cleaner is doing the ksm_execve() before the
insert_vm_struct(), and then cleaning up in case insert_vm_struct()
failed.
In fact, ksm_execve() has been called before the insert_vm_struct() in
this patch.


Ahh, I missed that. Indeed, that works then.
