[PATCH] sanitize handling of shared descriptor tables in failing execve()
* unshare_files() can fail; doing it after irreversible actions is wrong
and de_thread() is certainly irreversible.
* since we do it unconditionally anyway, we might as well do it in do_execve()
and save ourselves the PITA in binfmt handlers, etc.
* while we are at it, binfmt_som actually leaked files_struct on failure.
As a side benefit, unshare_files(), put_files_struct() and reset_files_struct()
become unexported.
