Syzkaller found an issue where an invalid interpreter pointer is
dereferenced in load_elf_binary()->allow_write_access(). Fix this by
jumping to a different label in the cleanup path.

This patch applies against the latest linux-next tree. I have not tested
that the patch addresses the issue, but it should, imho.

Patch looks valid to me as interpreter may be NULL and it later get 
tried to dereferencing inside allow_write_access

under label out_free_dentry.
