binfmt_elf force_sig arguments fix

Hi,

There appears to be a small error in the change that was recently applied to fs/binfmt_elf.c to fix error codes and eraly corrupt binary detection.

The patch includes changing a send_sig() call to a force_sig() call in load_elf_binary(). However force_sig() only accepts 2 arguments, and thus the patch causes the build to fail.

I propose the following patch to simply remove the extra argument to force_sig(), which I beleive will give a sensible result. That or change the call back to send_sig(), though I assume it was changed to force_sig() for a reason.
