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?
