Use binder_alloc struct's mm_struct rather than getting
a reference to the mm struct through get_task_mm to
avoid a potential deadlock between lru lock, task lock and
dentry lock, since a thread can be holding the task lock
and the dentry lock while trying to acquire the lru lock.

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.

Binder driver allocates buffer meta data in a region that is mapped
in user space. These meta data contain pointers in the kernel.
This patch allocates buffer meta data on the kernel heap that is
not mapped in user space, and uses a pointer to refer to the data mapped.

binder_alloc_selftest tests that alloc_new_buf handles page allocation and
deallocation properly when allocate and free buffers. The test allocates 5
buffers of various sizes to cover all possible page alignment cases, and
frees the buffers using a list of exhaustive freeing order.
Test: boot the device with ANDROID_BINDER_IPC_SELFTEST config option
enabled. Allocator selftest passes.

Move the binder allocator functionality to its own file
