VFS: Remove redundant open-coded mode bit check in prepare_binfmt().
The check in prepare_binfmt() for inode->i_mode & 0111 is redundant, since open_exec() will already have done that. Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com> (cherry picked from 822dec482ced07af32c378cd936d77345786572b commit)
