Strictly speaking, proc-context->name can also be initialized for !BINDERFS
so the BINDERFS in the MAX_NAME macro is misleading. So probably there should
be a BINDER_MAX_NAME (and associated checks for whether non BINDERFS names
fit within the MAX.

Same comment here, context_name can be used for non-BINDERFS transactions as
well such as default binder devices.
One more thought, this can be made dependent on CONFIG_BINDERFS since regular
binder devices cannot be unregistered AFAICS and as Jann said, the problem is
BINDERFS specific. That way we avoid the memcpy for _every_ transaction.
These can be thundering when Android starts up.
(I secretly wish C strings could be refcounted to avoid exactly this issue,
that should not be hard to develop but I am not sure if it is worth it for
this problem :) - For one, it will avoid having to do the strcpy for _every_
transaction).
Other than these nits, please add my tag on whichever is the final solution:
