Subject: [PATCH 0/1 v2] binder: free memory on error

On binder_init() the devices string is duplicated and smashed into individual
device names which are passed along. However, if I'm not mistaken the original
duplicated string wasn't freed in case binder_init() failed.

Changelog v2 2017-08-21 (Thanks Dan!)
