[PATCH AUTOSEL 4.19 06/14] ELF: fix kernel.randomize_va_space double read

[Sasha Levin]

From: Alexey Dobriyan <adobriyan@xxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 2a97388a807b6ab5538aa8f8537b2463c6988bd2 ]

ELF loader uses "randomize_va_space" twice. It is sysctl and can change
at any moment, so 2 loads could see 2 different values in theory with
unpredictable consequences.

Issue exactly one load for consistent value across one exec.
