Hold on to the pages allocated and mapped for transaction
buffers until the system is under memory pressure. When
that happens, use linux shrinker to free pages. Without
using shrinker, patch "android: binder: Move buffer out
of area shared with user space" will cause a significant
slow down for small transactions that fit into the first
page because free list buffer header used to be inlined
with buffer data.
In addition to prevent the performance regression for
small transactions, this patch improves the performance
for transactions that take up more than one page.
Modify alloc selftest to work with the shrinker change.
Test: Run memory intensive applications (Chrome and Camera)
to trigger shrinker callbacks. Binder frees memory as expected.
Test: Run binderThroughputTest with high memory pressure
option enabled.

We also need to hold the inner lock to protect the node

we don't have any node work queued).

2) node->lock : protects most fields of binder_node.

3) proc->inner_lock : protects the thread and node lists

proc->delivered_death and node->async_todo).
binder_inner_proc_lock() and binder_inner_proc_unlock()

binder_thread and binder_proc may be accessed by other
threads when processing transaction. Therefore they
must be prevented from being freed while a transaction
is in progress that references them.
This is done by introducing a temporary reference
counter for threads and procs that indicates that the
object is in use and must not be freed. binder_thread_dec_tmpref()
and binder_proc_dec_tmpref() are used to decrement
the temporary reference.
It is safe to free a binder_thread if there
is no reference and it has been released
(indicated by thread->is_dead).
It is safe to free a binder_proc if it has no
remaining threads and no reference.

In binder_thread_read, the BINDER_WORK_NODE command is used
to communicate the references on the node to userspace. It
can take a couple of iterations in the loop to construct
the list of commands for user space. When locking is added,
the lock would need to be release on each iteration which
means the state could change. The work item is not dequeued
during this process which prevents a simpler queue management
that can just dequeue up front and handle the work item.
Fixed by changing the BINDER_WORK_NODE algorithm in
binder_thread_read to determine which commands to send
to userspace atomically in 1 pass so it stays consistent
with the kernel view.
The work item is now dequeued immediately since only
1 pass is needed.

Previously all data passed over binder needed
to be serialized, with the exception of Binder
objects and file descriptors.
This patchs adds support for scatter-gathering raw
memory buffers into a binder transaction, avoiding
the need to first serialize them into a Parcel.
To remain backwards compatibile with existing
binder clients, it introduces two new command
ioctls for this purpose - BC_TRANSACTION_SG and
BC_REPLY_SG. These commands may only be used with
the new binder_transaction_data_sg structure,
which adds a field for the total size of the
buffers we are scatter-gathering.
Because memory buffers may contain pointers to
other buffers, we allow callers to specify
a parent buffer and an offset into it, to indicate
this is a location pointing to the buffer that
we are fixing up. The kernel will then take care
of fixing up the pointer to that buffer as well.
