In the future, please include a "Reported-by:" tag that shows who
reported the issue, and a Fixes: tag with the info for what commit this
fixes.

And no need to give the full sha1, you can shorten it, this is the
standard for kernel commit:
74310e06be4d ("android: binder: Move buffer out of area shared with user space")

I'll edit this patch up with that info, but in the future, please do
this yourself.

thanks,
