[PATCH 0/8] Sync upstream binder code with android-4.9 tree

From: John Stultz
Date: Fri Feb 03 2017 - 17:41:15 EST


Hey All,
With the android-4.9 tree being shared recently, I noticed
there were some new binder changes that hadn't yet made it
upstream (though an earlier version of the patchset was
submitted a bit back).

Anyway, I wanted to spur some review on the current patchset and
try to get upstream back in sync with the android tree, as AOSP
userspace is already making use of the multiple contexts feature
(hwbinder) here which can cause problems if its missing.

I've made only a few small tweaks to the patches, to address
checkpatch errors and to fold in a patch fix from Amit that was
also in the android-4.9 tree.

Please let me know if there is any objections or feedback here.

thanks
