exec: remove argv_len from struct linux_binprm

Browse source 
I noticed that 2.6.24.2 calculates bprm->argv_len at do_execve().  But it
doesn't update bprm->argv_len after "remove_arg_zero() +
copy_strings_kernel()" at load_script() etc.

audit_bprm() is called from search_binary_handler() and
search_binary_handler() is called from load_script() etc.  Thus, I think the
condition check

  if (bprm->argv_len > (audit_argv_kb << 10))
          return -E2BIG;

in audit_bprm() might return wrong result when strlen(removed_arg) !=
strlen(spliced_args).  Why not update bprm->argv_len at load_script() etc.  ?

By the way, 2.6.25-rc3 seems to not doing the condition check.  Is the field
bprm->argv_len no longer needed?
