Recomputing the uids, gids, capabilities, and related flags each time a
new bprm->file is set is error prone and unnecessary.
This set of changes splits per_clear temporarily into two separate
variables. This is the last change necessary to ensure that
everything that is computed from brpm->file in bprm->cred is
recomputed every time a new bprm->file is set. Then the code is
refactored to compute bprm->cred from bprm->file when the final
brpm->file is known, removing the need for recomputation entirely.
Doing this in two steps should allow anyone who has problems later to
bisect and tell if it was the semantic change or the refactoring that
caused them problems.

exec: Add a per bprm->file version of per_clear

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
