Which kernel tree are these patches for? Seems like begin_new_exec() is 
from a prerequisite patchset.

The base is:
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace.git exec-next

I should have mentioned.  I am several round deep in cleaning up exec
already.

begin_new_exec is essentially forget_old_exec.
