[PATCH 6/7] exec: Factor bprm_stack_limits out of prepare_arg_pages

[Eric W. Biederman]

In preparation for implementiong kernel_execve (which will take kernel
pointers not userspace pointers) factor out bprm_stack_limits out of
prepare_arg_pages.  This separates the counting which depends upon the
getting data from userspace from the calculations of the stack limits
which is usable in kernel_execve.

The remove prepare_args_pages and compute bprm->argc and bprm->envc
directly in do_execveat_common, before bprm_stack_limits is called.
