[PATCH] binfmt_flat: don't check for EMFILE
Bernd Schmidt points out that binfmt_flat is now leaving the exec file open while the application runs. This offsets all the application's fd numbers. We should have closed the file within exec(), not at exit()-time. But there doesn't seem to be a lot of point in doing all this just to avoid going over RLIMIT_NOFILE by one fd for a few microseconds. So take the EMFILE checking out again. This will cause binfmt_flat to again fail LTP's exec-should-return-EMFILE-when-fdtable-is-full test. That test appears to be wrong anyway - Open Group specs say nothing about exec() returning EMFILE.
