[PATCH 03/11] exec: Compute file based creds only once

[ebiederm@xmission.com (Eric W. Biederman)]

Move the computation of creds from prepare_binfmt into begin_new_exec
so that the creds can be computed only onc.

I have looked through the kernel and verified none of the binfmts
look at bprm->cred directly so computing the bprm->cred later
should be safe.

Rename preserve_creds to execfd_creds to make it clear that the creds
should be derived from the executable file descriptor.

Remove active_secureexec and active_per_clear and use secureexec and
per_clear respectively.  The active versions of these variables were
only necessary to allow their values to be recomputed from scratch
for each value of bprm->file.

Remove the now unnecessary work from bprm_fill_uid to reset the
bprm->cred->euid and bprm->cred->egid, and add a small comment
about what bprm_fill_uid now does.

Remove the now unnecessary work in cap_bprm_creds_from_file to
reset the ambient capabilities, and add a small comment
about what cap_bprm_creds_from_file does.
