[PATCH] binfmt_flat: Remove shared library support

Wed Apr 20 07:58:03 PDT 2022
In a recent discussion[1] it was reported that the binfmt_flat library
support was only ever used on m68k and even on m68k has not been used
in a very long time.
The structure of binfmt_flat is different from all of the other binfmt
implementations becasue of this shared library support and it made
life and code review more effort when I refactored the code in fs/exec.c.
Since in practice the code is dead remove the binfmt_flat shared libarary
support and make maintenance of the code easier.

Can the binfmt_flat folks please verify that the shared library support
really isn't used?
Was binfmt_flat being enabled on arm and sh the mistake it looks like?
