Subject: [PATCH 0/4] Relocate execve() sanity checks

Hi,

While looking at the code paths for the proposed O_MAYEXEC flag, I saw
some things that looked like they should be fixed up.

  exec: Change uselib(2) IS_SREG() failure to EACCES
	This just regularizes the return code on uselib(2).

  exec: Relocate S_ISREG() check
	This moves the S_ISREG() check even earlier than it was already.

  exec: Relocate path_noexec() check
	This adds the path_noexec() check to the same place as the
	S_ISREG() check.

  fs: Include FMODE_EXEC when converting flags to f_mode
	This seemed like an oversight, but I suspect there is some
	reason I couldn't find for why FMODE_EXEC doesn't get set in
	f_mode and just stays in f_flags.

Thanks!

-Kees
