(re)register_binfmt returns with -EBUSY
When a binary format is unregistered and re-registered, register_binfmt
fails with -EBUSY. The reason is that unregister_binfmt does not set
fmt->next to NULL, and seeing (fmt->next != NULL), register_binfmt fails
with -EBUSY.
One can find his way around by explicitly setting fmt->next to NULL after
unregistering, but that is kind of unclean (one should better be using only
the interfaces, and not the interal members, isn't it?)
Attached one-liner can fix it.
