[PATCH 02/37] binder: use group leader instead of open thread

From: Todd Kjos
Date: Thu Jun 29 2017 - 15:09:46 EST


The binder allocator assumes that the thread that
called binder_open will never die for the lifetime of
that proc. That thread is normally the group_leader,
however it may not be. Use the group_leader instead
of current.
