binder: create userspace-to-binder-buffer copy function
The binder driver uses a vm_area to map the per-process binder buffer space. For 32-bit android devices, this is now taking too much vmalloc space. This patch removes the use of vm_area when copying the transaction data from the sender to the buffer space. Instead of using copy_from_user() for multi-page copies, it now uses binder_alloc_copy_user_to_buffer() which uses kmap() and kunmap() to map each page, and uses copy_from_user() for copying to that page.
