When a binder transaction is initiated on a binder device coming from a
binderfs instance, a pointer to the name of the binder device is stashed
in the binder_transaction_log_entry's context_name member. Later on it
is used to print the name in print_binder_transaction_log_entry(). By
the time print_binder_transaction_log_entry() accesses context_name
binderfs_evict_inode() might have already freed the associated memory
thereby causing a UAF. Do the simple thing and prevent this by copying
the name of the binder device instead of stashing a pointer to it.

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.
