Subject: Seg fault occurs when running statically compiled binary from kernel
using call_usermodehelper
On kernel version 3.8.13, when we try to execute a statically compiled
binary from kernel, it is giving segfault:

sample.static is a simple "Hello_world" program.
However, there is no problem in executing dynamically compiled binaries.
When we revert commit 9fff2fa0db911b0b75ec1f9bec72460c0a676ef5 (arm:
switch to saner kernel_execve() semantics), there is no problem.
OR
for kernel 3.8.13 (which is just a plain revert when arch specific
kernel_execve was present), then also no problem =>
