Subject: [PATCH 4/4] exec: kill the unnecessary mm->def_flags setting in load_elf_binary()
From: Alex Thorlton <athorlton () sgi ! com>

[Download RAW message or body]
load_elf_binary() sets current->mm->def_flags = def_flags and
def_flags is always zero. Not only this looks strange, this is
unnecessary because mm_init() has already set ->def_flags = 0.
