I think this is wrong. When CONFIG_USELIB is enabled, the uselib()
syscall will open a file with __FMODE_EXEC but without going through
execve(). From what I can tell, there are no bprm hooks on this path.

I don't know if it _matters_ much, given that it'll only let you
read/execute stuff from files with valid ELF headers, but still.
