load_binfmt_misc() is one word swap away from load_misc_binary(),
the binfmt loader it serves. It doesn't load anything, it looks up
the binfmt_misc instance of the caller's user namespace, so name it
after what it returns in the style of current_user_ns() and friends.
Tighten the parent walk into a for loop and fix the stale wording
and typos in the kernel-doc while at it.
