In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

binder: fix alloc->vma_vm_mm null-ptr dereference

Syzbot reported a couple issues introduced by commit 44e602b4e52f
("binder_alloc: add missing mmap_lock calls when using the VMA"), in
which we attempt to acquire the mmap_lock when alloc->vma_vm_mm has not
been initialized yet.

This can happen if a binder_proc receives a transaction without having
previously called mmap() to setup the binder_proc->alloc space in [1].
Also, a similar issue occurs via binder_alloc_print_pages() when we try
to dump the debugfs binder stats file in [2].

Fix these issues by setting up alloc->vma_vm_mm pointer during open()
and caching directly from current->mm. This guarantees we have a valid
reference to take the mmap_lock during scenarios described above.
