Carlos Llamas 5c3d4930c7 binder: fix unused alloc->free_async_space
commit c6d05e0762ab276102246d24affd1e116a46aa0c upstream.

Each transaction is associated with a 'struct binder_buffer' that stores
the metadata about its buffer area. Since commit 74310e06be ("android:
binder: Move buffer out of area shared with user space") this struct is
no longer embedded within the buffer itself but is instead allocated on
the heap to prevent userspace access to this driver-exclusive info.

Unfortunately, the space of this struct is still being accounted for in
the total buffer size calculation, specifically for async transactions.
This results in an additional 104 bytes added to every async buffer
request, and this area is never used.

This wasted space can be substantial. If we consider the maximum mmap
buffer space of SZ_4M, the driver will reserve half of it for async
transactions, or 0x200000. This area should, in theory, accommodate up
to 262,144 buffers of the minimum 8-byte size. However, after adding
the extra 'sizeof(struct binder_buffer)', the total number of buffers
drops to only 18,724, which is a sad 7.14% of the actual capacity.

This patch fixes the buffer size calculation to enable the utilization
of the entire async buffer space. This is expected to reduce the number
of -ENOSPC errors that are seen on the field.

README

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.
