tracing, sched, vfs: Fix 'old_pid' usage in trace_sched_process_exec()
1. TRACE_EVENT(sched_process_exec) forgets to actually use the old pid argument, it sets ->old_pid = p->pid. 2. search_binary_handler() uses the wrong pid number. tracepoint needs the global pid_t from the root namespace, while old_pid is the virtual pid number as it seen by the tracer/parent. With this patch we have two pid_t's in search_binary_handler(), not really nice. Perhaps we should switch to "struct pid*", but in this case it would be better to cleanup the current code first and move the "depth == 0" code outside.
