#1330891 — [PATCH 2/2] android: drivers: Avoid debugfs race in binder

From: Riley Andrews <riandrews@android.com>

If a /d/binder/proc/[pid] entry is kept open after linux has
torn down the associated process, binder_proc_show can deference
an invalid binder_proc that has been stashed in the debugfs
inode.  Validate that the binder_proc ptr passed into binder_proc_show
has not been freed by looking for it within the global process list
whilst the global lock is held. If the ptr is not valid, print nothing.
