Great. Thanks a lot.

Because NOMMU doesn't have variable length argv. Instead it is still
using MAX_ARG_STRLEN as old MMU code.

32 pages hard coded argv limitation naturally prevent this nascent mm
issue.

General request. Please consider to keep Brad's reported-by tag.

Please move this function into #ifdef CONFIG_MMU. nommu code doesn't use it.

I prefer to cast signed before assignment. It's safer more.

OK, looks good.

Why do we need this unacct here? I mean 1) if exec_mmap() is success,
we don't need unaccount at all 2) if exec_mmap() is failure, an epilogue of
do_execve() does unaccount thing.
