Subject: Don't mess with descriptor table in load_elf_binary()
X-Git-Url: http://drtracing.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=e7b9b550f53e81ea38e71d322d6f95730df058a2;p=deliverable%2Flinux.git

Don't mess with descriptor table in load_elf_binary()

... since we don't tell anyone which descriptor does the file get.
We used to, but only in case of ELF binary with a.out loader and
that stuff has been gone for a while.
