[PATCH] binfmt_elf: Allow .bss in any interp PT_LOAD

[PATCH] binfmt_elf: Allow .bss in any interp PT_LOAD

[Kees Cook]

Traditionally, only the final PT_LOAD for load_elf_interp() supported
having p_memsz > p_filesz. Recently, lld's construction of musl's
libc.so on PowerPC64 started having two PT_LOAD program headers with
p_memsz > p_filesz.

As the least invasive change possible, check for p_memsz > p_filesz for
each PT_LOAD in load_elf_interp.

Rich, Pedro, and Fangrui, are you able to test this change? I haven't
constructed a trivial reproducer yet (though it would be nice to have
a self-contained test-case).
