[update] Re: new execve/kernel_thread design

The situation got much better by now. More than a half of
architectures are done - alpha arm arm64 c6x hexagon ia64 m68k mips openrisc
parisc sparc tile um unicore32 and x86.

Two more avait ACKs from maintainers - powerpc and s390. Should work,
AFAICS.

xtensa - Max was going to repost updated patches; waiting for that
to happen, but essentially it's done and tested.

microblaze - Michal was debugging kernel_execve side of it the last
time I've heard from him...

frv, mn10300 - dhowells was going to test those

sh - Paul Mundt was going to test and send fixes

avr32, blackfin, cris, h8300, m32r, score - no signs of life from
maintainers. Folks, please show up and at least test the damn patchsets.
Hell knows, they might even work - unicore32 one did, modulo trivial typo,
to my deep surprise...
