[merged] exec-binfmt_misc-kill-the-onstack-iname-array.patch removed from -mm tree

[akpm]

The patch titled
     Subject: exec: binfmt_misc: kill the onstack iname[BINPRM_BUF_SIZE] array
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     exec-binfmt_misc-kill-the-onstack-iname-array.patch

This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree

------------------------------------------------------
From: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com>
Subject: exec: binfmt_misc: kill the onstack iname[BINPRM_BUF_SIZE] array

After the previous change "fmt" can't go away, we can kill iname/iname_addr
and use fmt->interpreter.
