Carlos Llamas d7cee853bc binder: add lockless binder_alloc_(set|get)_vma()
commit 0fa53349c3 upstream.

Bring back the original lockless design in binder_alloc to determine
whether the buffer setup has been completed by the ->mmap() handler.
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.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
