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 f0fe2c0f050d ("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:

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.
Fixes: f0fe2c0f050d ("binder: prevent UAF for binderfs devices II")
