However, this time use smp_load_acquire() and smp_store_release() to wrap all the ordering in a single macro call. Also, add comments to make it evident that binder uses alloc->vma to determine when the binder_alloc has been fully initialized. In these scenarios acquiring the mmap_lock is not required.
