[PATCH] increase AT_VECTOR_SIZE to terminate saved_auxv properly

From: Olaf Hering
Date: Tue Sep 18 2007 - 07:54:39 EST



include/asm-powerpc/elf.h has 6 entries in ARCH_DLINFO.
fs/binfmt_elf.c has 14 unconditional NEW_AUX_ENT entries and 2
conditional NEW_AUX_ENT entries.
So in the worst case, saved_auxv does not get an AT_NULL entry at the
end.

The saved_auxv array must be terminated with an AT_NULL entry.
Make the size of mm_struct->saved_auxv arch dependend,
based on the number of ARCH_DLINFO entries.
