Hmm, it seems that on my environment (Fedora20, gcc version 4.8.2 20131212),
do_execve() in sys_execve has been optimized out (and do_execve_common() is
also renamed). I'll try to rebuild it. However, since such optimization sometimes
depends on kernel config, I'd like to do it with your config.

Thank you,
