Subject: ANDROID: binder: fix proc->tsk check.

From: Martijn Coenen <maco@xxxxxxxxxxx>

commit b2a6d1b999a4c13e5997bb864694e77172d45250 upstream.

Commit c4ea41ba195d ("binder: use group leader instead of open thread")'
was incomplete and didn't update a check in binder_mmap(), causing all
mmap() calls into the binder driver to fail.
