Because it is no longer needed. And now that we have the non-recursive exec_binprm() called right before free_bprm() it is obvious that it won't be used again. > Seems reasonable to > keep that just to be avoid use-after-free accidents. OK. I will add it back. With the comment to explain that this is only to catch the possible problems. I guess it would be better if I resend the whole series to avoid the confusion. I am going to add your acks. It seems that you acked everything except 1/3 in the previous series, perhaps you can ack it too? Thanks for review!
