fs/binfmt_elf.c: smaller code generation around auxv vector fill
Filling auxv vector as array with index (auxv[i++] = ...) generates terrible code. "saved_auxv" should be reworked because it is the worst member of mm_struct by size/usefullness ratio but do it later. Meanwhile help gcc a little with *auxv++ idiom.
