OK, what do you think about the patch below?

Seems to work, with this patch the test-case doesn't kill the
system (sysctl_oom_kill_allocating_task == 0).

I didn't dare to change !CONFIG_MMU case, I do not know how to
test it.

The patch is not complete, compat_copy_strings() needs changes.
But, shouldn't it use get_arg_page() too? Otherwise, where do
we check RLIMIT_STACK?

The patch asks for the cleanups. In particular, I think exec_mmap()
should accept bprm, not mm. But I'd prefer to do this later.

Oleg.
