Subject: binfmt_elf: fix PIE execution with randomization disabled
From: Jiri Kosina <jkosina@suse.cz>
commit a3defbe5c337dbc6da911f8cc49ae3cc3b49b453 upstream.
The case of address space randomization being disabled in runtime through
randomize_va_space sysctl is not treated properly in load_elf_binary(),
resulting in SIGKILL coming at exec() time for certain PIE-linked binaries
in case the randomization has been disabled at runtime prior to calling
exec().
Handle the randomize_va_space == 0 case the same way as if we were not
supporting .text randomization at all.
Based on original patch by H.J. Lu and Josh Boyer.
