binder: Prevent context manager from incrementing ref 0
Binder is designed such that a binder_proc never has references to itself. If this rule is violated, memory corruption can occur when a process sends a transaction to itself; see e.g. <https://syzkaller.appspot.com/bug?extid=09e05aba06723a94d43d>. There is a remaining edgecase through which such a transaction-to-self can still occur from the context of a task with BINDER_SET_CONTEXT_MGR access: - task A opens /dev/binder twice, creating binder_proc instances P1 and P2 - P1 becomes context manager - P2 calls ACQUIRE on the magic handle 0, allocating index 0 in its handle table - P1 dies (by closing the /dev/binder fd and waiting a bit) - P2 becomes context manager - P2 calls ACQUIRE on the magic handle 0, allocating index 1 in its handle table [this triggers a warning: "binder: 1974:1974 tried to acquire reference to desc 0, got 1 instead"] - task B opens /dev/binder once, creating binder_proc instance P3 - P3 calls P2 (via magic handle 0) with (void*)1 as argument (two-way transaction) - P2 receives the handle and uses it to call P3 (two-way transaction) - P3 calls P2 (via magic handle 0) (two-way transaction) - P2 calls P2 (via handle 1) (two-way transaction) And then, if P2 does *NOT* accept the incoming transaction work, but instead closes the binder fd, we get a crash. Solve it by preventing the context manager from using ACQUIRE on ref 0. There shouldn't be any legitimate reason for the context manager to do that. Additionally, print a warning if someone manages to find another way to trigger a transaction-to-self bug in the future.
