* Load and execute a static ELF binary.

* We make one assumption on the location the binary expects to be loaded
* at: that it be outside of the kernel memory space.
*
* Arguments are passed to the stack of the user application so that they
* can be read properly.
*
* TODO: Environment variables should be loaded somewhere.
*
* HACK: ELF verification isn't complete.

* @param path Path to the executable to attempt to execute.
* @param argc Number of arguments (because I'm not counting for you)
* @param argv Pointer to a string of arguments
