[PATCH v1 4/7] binderfs: rework binderfs_binder_device_create()

[Christian Brauner <christian@xxxxxxxxxx>]

- switch from d_alloc_name() + d_lookup() to lookup_one_len():
  Instead of using d_alloc_name() and then doing a d_lookup() with the
  allocated dentry to find whether a device with the name we're trying to
  create already exists switch to using lookup_one_len().  The latter will
  either return the existing dentry or a new one.

- switch from kmalloc() + strscpy() to kmemdup():
  Use a more idiomatic way to copy the name for the new dentry that
  userspace gave us.
