exec: fix the racy usage of fs_struct->in_exec
check_unsafe_exec() sets fs->in_exec under cred_guard_mutex, then execve()
paths clear fs->in_exec lockless. This is fine if exec succeeds, but if it
fails we have the following race:

	T1 sets fs->in_exec = 1, fails, drops cred_guard_mutex

	T2 sets fs->in_exec = 1

	T1 clears fs->in_exec

	T2 continues with fs->in_exec == 0

Change fs/exec.c to clear fs->in_exec with cred_guard_mutex held.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
