pidfd: Use new infrastructure to fix deadlocks in execve
This changes __pidfd_fget to use the new exec_update_mutex
instead of cred_guard_mutex.
This should be safe, as the credentials do not change
before exec_update_mutex is locked. Therefore whatever
file access is possible with holding the cred_guard_mutex
here is also possbile with the exec_update_mutex.
