commit 42316941335644a98335f209daafa4c122f28983 upstream.

The type defined for the BINDER_SET_MAX_THREADS ioctl was changed from
size_t to __u32 in order to avoid incompatibility issues between 32 and
64-bit kernels. However, the internal types used to copy from user and
store the value were never updated. Use u32 to fix the inconsistency.

<title>binder: check offset alignment in binder_get_object()</title>

<content type='text'>
Commit 6d98eb95b450 ("binder: avoid potential data leakage when copying
txn") introduced changes to how binder objects are copied. In doing so,
it unintentionally removed an offset alignment check done through calls
to binder_alloc_copy_from_buffer() -&gt; check_buffer().

These calls were replaced in binder_get_object() with copy_from_user(),
so now an explicit offset alignment check is needed here. This avoids
later complications when unwinding the objects gets harder.

It is worth noting this check existed prior to commit 7a67a39320df
("binder: add function to copy binder object from buffer"), likely
removed due to redundancy at the time.

<title>binder: signal epoll threads of self-work</title>

<content type='text'>
In (e)poll mode, threads often depend on I/O events to determine when
data is ready for consumption. Within binder, a thread may initiate a
command via BINDER_WRITE_READ without a read buffer and then make use
of epoll_wait() or similar to consume any responses afterwards.

It is then crucial that epoll threads are signaled via wakeup when they
queue their own work. Otherwise, they risk waiting indefinitely for an
event leaving their work unhandled. What is worse, subsequent commands
won't trigger a wakeup either as the thread has pending work.

That really shouldn't have "get" in there as that implies we're bumping
the reference count which we don't do at all. We used to but not anmore.
Now we're just closing the fd and pick that file from the fdtable
without bumping the reference count. Update the wrong documentation
while at it.

Prefer logging vma offsets instead of addresses or simply drop the debug
log altogether if not useful. Note this covers the instances affected by
the switch to store addresses as unsigned long. However, there are other
sections in the driver that could do the same.

Binder attributes the buffer allocation to the current-&gt;tgid everytime.
There is no need to pass this as a parameter so drop it.

Also add a few touchups to follow the coding guidelines. No functional
changes are introduced in this patch.

The vma addresses in binder are currently stored as void __user *. This
requires casting back and forth between the mm/ api which uses unsigned
long. Since we also do internal arithmetic on these addresses we end up
having to cast them _again_ to an integer type.

Lets stop all the unnecessary casting which kills code readability and
store the virtual addresses as the native unsigned long from mm/. Note
that this approach is preferred over uintptr_t as Linus explains in [1].

Opportunistically add a few cosmetic touchups.
