[PATCH 1/2] drivers: android: Use octal permissions

From: Harsh Shandilya
Date: Fri Dec 22 2017 - 09:07:24 EST


From: Harsh Shandilya <harsh@xxxxxxxx>

checkpatch warns against the use of symbolic permissions,
this patch migrates all symbolic permissions in the binder
driver to octal permissions.

Test: debugfs nodes created by binder have the same unix
permissions prior to and after this patch was applied.
