[PATCH AUTOSEL 6.1 12/15] exec: Distinguish in_execve from in_exec

[PATCH AUTOSEL 6.1 12/15] exec: Distinguish in_execve from in_exec

[Sasha Levin]

From: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org>

[ Upstream commit 90383cc07895183c75a0db2460301c2ffd912359 ]

Just to help distinguish the fs->in_exec flag from the current->in_execve
flag, add comments in check_unsafe_exec() and copy_fs() for more
context. Also note that in_execve is only used by TOMOYO now.
