binder: prevent transactions to context manager from its own process.
Currently, a transaction to context manager from its own process is prevented by checking if its binder_proc struct is the same as that of the sender. However, this would not catch cases where the process opens the binder device again and uses the new fd to send a transaction to the context manager.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
