It would be better if this had a fixes tag so we knew which is the first
buggy commit.
There was a long Project Zero article about the Bad Binder exploit
because commit f5cb779ba163 ("ANDROID: binder: remove waitqueue when
thread exits.") was marked as # 4.14 but it didn't have a Fixes tag and
the actual buggy commit was in 4.9.
