binderfs: respect limit on binder control creation
We currently adhere to the reserved devices limit when creating new binderfs devices in binderfs instances not located in the inital ipc namespace. But it is still possible to rob the host instances of their 4 reserved devices by creating the maximum allowed number of devices in a single binderfs instance located in a non-initial ipc namespace and then mounting 4 separate binderfs instances in non-initial ipc namespaces. That happens because the limit is currently not respected for the creation of the initial binder-control device node. Block this nonsense by performing the same check in binderfs_binder_ctl_create() that we perform in binderfs_binder_device_create(). Fixes: 36bdf3cae09d ("binderfs: reserve devices for initial mount") Signed-off-by: Christian Brauner <christian@brauner.io> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
