Fix binfmt_flag's load_flat_shared_library() to initialise bprm correctly. Currently, prepare_binprm() is called with only .filename .file and .cred fields set in bprm, but the .cred_prepared and .per_clear fields at least need initialising.
Should the struct also be removed from the stack and allocated from the kmalloc pool instead as it's a huge structure? Also, is shared library loading potentially recursive?
