mainlining shenanigans

binder_thread and binder_proc may be accessed by other threads when processing transaction. Therefore they must be prevented from being freed while a transaction is in progress that references them. This is done by introducing a temporary reference counter for threads and procs that indicates that the object is in use and must not be freed. binder_thread_dec_tmpref() and binder_proc_dec_tmpref() are used to decrement the temporary reference. It is safe to free a binder_thread if there is no reference and it has been released (indicated by thread->is_dead). It is safe to free a binder_proc if it has no remaining threads and no reference. A spinlock is added to the binder_transaction to safely access and set references for t->from and for debug code to safely access t->to_thread and t->to_proc.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
