binder: fix use-after-free due to ksys_close() during fdget()
44d8047f1d8 ("binder: use standard functions to allocate fds") exposed a pre-existing issue in the binder driver. fdget() is used in ksys_ioctl() as a performance optimization. One of the rules associated with fdget() is that ksys_close() must not be called between the fdget() and the fdput(). There is a case where this requirement is not met in the binder driver which results in the reference count dropping to 0 when the device is still in use. This can result in use-after-free or other issues. If userpace has passed a file-descriptor for the binder driver using a BINDER_TYPE_FDA object, then kys_close() is called on it when handling a binder_ioctl(BC_FREE_BUFFER) command. This violates the assumptions for using fdget(). The problem is fixed by deferring the close using task_work_add(). A new variant of __close_fd() was created that returns a struct file with a reference. The fput() is deferred instead of using ksys_close().
