Subject: [PATCH 0/3] exec: minor cleanups + minor fix

Andrew,

By discussion with Zach, please drop

	fs-binfmts-add-a-name-field-to-the-binfmt-struct.patch
	fs-binfmts-better-handling-of-binfmt-loops.patch
	fs-binfmts-whitespace-fixes-with-scripts-cleanfile.patch

Zach is working on v2.

Meanwhile, can't we cleanup search_binary_handler() a bit? It
doesn't look nice imho. And we can certainly cleanup it more
(perhaps I'll try tomorrow). The error handling, request_module()
logic and even "for (try=0; try<2; try++)" looks horrible imho.

Oleg.
