Rui Salvaterra reported that Aisleroit solitaire crashes with "Wrong
__data_start/_end pair" assertion from libgc after update to v5.17-rc1.

Bisection pointed to commit 9630f0d60fec ("fs/binfmt_elf: use PT_LOAD
p_align values for static PIE") that fixed handling of static PIEs, but
made the condition that guards load_bias calculation to exclude loader
binaries.

Restoring the check for presence of interpreter fixes the problem.

The patch does fix the problem for me, and is thus
