Staging: android: binder: Fix crashes when sharing a binder file betw…
…een processes Opening the binder driver and sharing the file returned with other processes (e.g. by calling fork) can crash the kernel. Prevent these crashes with the following changes: - Add a mutex to protect against two processes mmapping the same binder_proc. - After locking mmap_sem, check that the vma we want to access (still) points to the same mm_struct. - Use proc->tsk instead of current to get the files struct since this is where we get the rlimit from.
