binderfs: rework binderfs_binder_device_create()
- switch from d_alloc_name() + d_lookup() to lookup_one_len(): Instead of using d_alloc_name() and then doing a d_lookup() with the allocated dentry to find whether a device with the name we're trying to create already exists switch to using lookup_one_len(). The latter will either return the existing dentry or a new one. - switch from kmalloc() + strscpy() to kmemdup(): Use a more idiomatic way to copy the name for the new dentry that userspace gave us. Suggested-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> Signed-off-by: Christian Brauner <christian@brauner.io> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
