From: Hridya Valsaraju <hridya@xxxxxxxxxx> commit 49ed96943a8e0c62cc5a9b0a6cfc88be87d1fcec upstream. Currently, a transaction to context manager from its own process is prevented by checking if its binder_proc struct is the same as that of the sender. However, this would not catch cases where the process opens the binder device again and uses the new fd to send a transaction to the context manager.
