Subject: [PATCH] binder: fix test regression due to sender_euid change

This is a partial revert of commit
29bc22ac5e5b ("binder: use euid from cred instead of using task").
Setting sender_euid using proc->cred caused some Android system test
regressions that need further investigation. It is a partial
reversion because subsequent patches rely on proc->cred.

Cc: stable@...r.kernel.org # 4.4+
Fixes: 29bc22ac5e5b ("binder: use euid from cred instead of using task")
Signed-off-by: Todd Kjos <tkjos@...gle.com>
Change-Id: I9b1769a3510fed250bb21859ef8beebabe034c66
---
- the issue was introduced in 5.16-rc1, so please apply to 5.16
- this should apply cleanly to all stable branches back to 4.4
  that contain "binder: use euid from cred instead of using task"
