This reverts commit a43cfc87caaf46710c8027a8c23b8a55f1078f19.
This patch fixed an issue reported by syzkaller in [1]. However, this
turned out to be only a band-aid in binder. The root cause, as bisected
by syzkaller, was fixed by commit 5789151e48ac ("mm/mmap: undo ->mmap()
when mas_preallocate() fails"). We no longer need the patch for binder.
Reverting such patch allows us to have a lockless access to alloc->vma
in specific cases where the mmap_lock is not required. This approach
avoids the contention that caused a performance regression.

[cmllamas: resolved conflicts with rework of alloc->mm and removal of
binder_alloc_set_vma() also fixed comment section]
Fixes: a43cfc87caaf ("android: binder: stop saving a pointer to the VMA")

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.
