[GIT PULL] execve reverts for v6.0-rc7

[Kees Cook]

Hi Linus,

Please pull these execve reverts for v6.0-rc7. The recent work to
support time namespace unsharing turns out to have some undesirable
corner cases, so rather than allowing the API to stay exposed for
another release, it'd be best to remove it ASAP, with the replacement
getting another cycle of testing. Nothing is known to use this yet,
so no userspace breakage is expected. For more details, see:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/ed418e43ad28b8688cfea2b7c90fce1c@ispras.ru/

Also note that this is expected to introduce a small merge conflict for
the coming v6.1 merge window, as seen in linux-next:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-next/20220914155533.70c10493@canb.auug.org.au/

Thanks!

-Kees
