Todd Kjos 1a7c3d9bb7 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.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
