binder: use group leader instead of open thread
commit c4ea41ba195d01c9af66fb28711a16cc97caa9c5 upstream. The binder allocator assumes that the thread that called binder_open will never die for the lifetime of that proc. That thread is normally the group_leader, however it may not be. Use the group_leader instead of current.
