commit d38e0e3fed4f58bcddef4dc93a591dfe2f651cb0 upstream.

Commit 6bd4a5d96c08dc2380f8053b1bd4f879f55cd3c9 changed the
ANDROID_ALARM_GET_TIME ioctls from IOW to IOR.  While technically
correct, the _IOC_DIR bits are ignored by alarm_ioctl, so the
commit breaks a userspace ABI used by all existing Android devices
for a purely cosmetic reason.  Revert it.

commit 585650dcec88e704a19bb226a34b6a7166111623 upstream.

The default kernel mapping for the pages allocated for the binder
buffers is never used. Set the __GFP_HIGHMEM flag when allocating
these pages so we don't needlessly use low memory pages that may
be required elsewhere.

commit 675d66b0ed5fd170d6a44cf8dbb3fa56a5347bdb upstream.

If a thread or process exited while a reply, one-way transaction or
death notification was pending, the struct holding the pending work
was leaked.
