exec: fix off-by-one in binfmt max rewrite depth comment
The loop in exec_binprm() permits depth values 0 through 5, up to 5
successive binfmt rewrites (setting bprm->interpreter) until the 6th
one would fail on depth > 5 and return -ELOOP. The comment claimed 4
levels, which was wrong. Adjusting the code to allow only 4 rewrites
would be breaking userland, so fix the comment and not the code.
Reproducer (a chain of shebanged scripts followed by an ELF binary):
#!/bin/sh
tmp=$(mktemp -d)
echo $tmp
cd $tmp
mk () { echo $2 > $1; chmod +x $1; }
for i in $(seq 4); do
mk $i "#!$((i + 1))"
done
mk 5 '#!/bin/true'
./1 &&
echo '5 binfmt rewrites OK (1 -> 2 -> 3 -> 4 -> 5 -> /bin/true)'
mk 5 '#!6'
mk 6 '#!/bin/true'
./1 ||
echo '6 binfmt rewrites KO (1 -> 2 -> 3 -> 4 -> 5 -> 6 -> /bin/true)'
