Oleg Nesterov 9eb8a659de exec: remove the no longer needed remove_arg_zero()->free_arg_page()
remove_arg_zero() does free_arg_page() for no reason.  This was needed
before and only if CONFIG_MMU=y: see commit 4fc75ff481 ("exec: fix
remove_arg_zero"), install_arg_page() was called for every page != NULL
in bprm->page[] array.  Today install_arg_page() has already gone and
free_arg_page() is nop after another commit b6a2fea393 ("mm: variable
length argument support").

CONFIG_MMU=n does free_arg_pages() in free_bprm() and thus it doesn't
need remove_arg_zero()->free_arg_page() too; apart from get_arg_page()
it never checks if the page in bprm->page[] was allocated or not, so the
"extra" non-freed page is fine.  OTOH, this free_arg_page() can add the
minor pessimization, the caller is going to do copy_strings_kernel()
right after remove_arg_zero() which will likely need to re-allocate the
same page again.

And as Hujunjie pointed out, the "offset == PAGE_SIZE" check is wrong
because we are going to increment bprm->p once again before return, so
CONFIG_MMU=n "leaks" the page anyway if '0' is the final byte in this
page.

NOTE: remove_arg_zero() assumes that argv[0] is null-terminated but this
is not necessarily true.  copy_strings() does "len = strnlen_user(...)",
then copy_from_user(len) but another thread or debuger can overwrite the
trailing '0' in between.  Afaics nothing really bad can happen because
we must always have the null-terminated bprm->filename copied by the 1st
copy_strings_kernel(), but perhaps we should change this code to check
"bprm->p < bprm->exec" anyway, and/or change copy_strings() to ensure
that the last byte in string is always zero.
