base-linux: ld.lib.so loads dynamic binaries 

For ARM support on N900, commit 4a9b1c6 changed the process library to
start dynamic binaries directly depending on the Linux kernel to comply
to the interp section info ("ld.lib.so"). This seems not required on
more recent platforms or kernel versions and also introduced challenging
corner cases in region handling on Linux. Therefore, this commit
restores the original behavior.
