The SELinux bprm_secureexec hook can be merged with the bprm_set_creds
hook since it's dealing with the same information, and all of the details
are finalized during the first call to the bprm_set_creds hook via
prepare_binprm() (subsequent calls due to binfmt_script, etc, are ignored
via bprm->called_set_creds).

Here, the test can just happen at the end of the bprm_set_creds hook,
and the bprm_secureexec hook can be dropped.

This seems reasonable in the context of the other changes.

Stephen just posted an AT_SECURE test for the selinux-testsuite on the
SELinux mailing list, it would be nice to ensure that this patchset
doesn't run afoul of that.
Quick follow-up: I just merged Stephen's test into the test suite:

Is there a quick how-to on just running the AT_SECURE test?
