Paolo 'Blaisorblade' Giarrusso 5d48545e5e [PATCH] uml: make execvp safe for our usage
Reimplement execvp for our purposes - after we call fork() it is fundamentally
unsafe to use the kernel allocator - current is not valid there.  So we simply
pass to our modified execvp() a preallocated buffer.  This fixes a real bug
and works very well in testing (I've seen indirectly warning messages from the
forked thread - they went on the pipe connected to its stdout and where read
as a number by UML, when calling read_output().  I verified the obtained
number corresponded to "BUG:").

The added use of __cant_sleep() is not a new bug since __cant_sleep() is
already used in the same function - passing an atomicity parameter would be
better but it would require huge change, stating that this function must not
be called in atomic context and can sleep is a better idea (will make sure of
this gradually).
