[RFC] Remove remaining users of exec domains

[RFC] Remove remaining users of exec domains

[Richard Weinberger]

These two patches remove the last two in-tree users of exec domains.
Both seem to be abandoned and historical.
Russel, Tony, are you fine with that? 

The plan is to get rid of exec domains at all. IOW no more register_exec_domain,
no signal translation.
I have a follow up series for that already in my local tree.

Thanks,
//richard

[PATCH 2/2] ia64: Remove Linux/x86 domain support

[Richard Weinberger]

ia64 exec domain support seems to be incomplete and unused.
It has no custom handler nor a custom signal map.
All it does is showing up in /proc/execdomains.
Let's rip it out.

[PATCH 2/2] ia64: Remove Linux/x86 domain support

[Richard Weinberger]

ia64 exec domain support seems to be incomplete and unused.
It has no custom handler nor a custom signal map.
All it does is showing up in /proc/execdomains.
Let's rip it out.

I don't know if there are still people using ia32el to run x86 binaries
on ia64 ... but if there are, they may be sad at the extra delays.

As written in 0/, the plan is to get rid of exec domains at all.
Therefore personality(PER_LINUX32) would no longer try to request a module.
