The patch titled
Subject: exec: binfmt_misc: shift filp_close(interp_file) from kill_node() to bm_evict_inode()
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
exec-binfmt_misc-shift-filp_closeinterp_file-from-kill_node-to-bm_evict_inode.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree

Subject: exec: binfmt_misc: shift filp_close(interp_file) from kill_node() to bm_evict_inode()
To ensure that load_misc_binary() can't use the partially destroyed Node,
see also the next patch.
The current logic looks wrong in any case, once we close interp_file it
doesn't make any sense to delay kfree(inode->i_private), this Node is no
longer valid. Even if the MISC_FMT_OPEN_FILE/interp_file checks were not
racy (they are), load_misc_binary() should not try to reopen ->interpreter
if MISC_FMT_OPEN_FILE is set but ->interp_file is NULL.
And I can't understand why do we use filp_close(), not fput().
