    binder: fix null deref of proc->context · d35d3660
    Todd Kjos authored
    The binder driver makes the assumption proc->context pointer is invariant after
    initialization (as documented in the kerneldoc header for struct proc).
    However, in commit f0fe2c0f ("binder: prevent UAF for binderfs devices II")
    proc->context is set to NULL during binder_deferred_release().
    
    Another proc was in the middle of setting up a transaction to the dying
    process and crashed on a NULL pointer deref on "context" which is a local
    set to &proc->context:
    
        new_ref->data.desc = (node == context->binder_context_mgr_node) ? 0 : 1;
    
    Here's the stack:

    [ 5237.855497] el0_svc+0x8/0xc
    
    The fix is to move the kfree of the binder_device to binder_free_proc()
    so the binder_device is freed when we know there are no references
    remaining on the binder_proc.
