binder: prevent UAF read in print_binder_transaction_log_entry()
When a binder transaction is initiated on a binder device coming from a binderfs instance, a pointer to the name of the binder device is stashed in the binder_transaction_log_entry's context_name member. Later on it is used to print the name in print_binder_transaction_log_entry(). By the time print_binder_transaction_log_entry() accesses context_name binderfs_evict_inode() might have already freed the associated memory thereby causing a UAF. Do the simple thing and prevent this by copying the name of the binder device instead of stashing a pointer to it.
