The get_current_thread() method is currently called for every ioctl to
ensure that a Thread struct exists for the thread calling into the
driver. However, not all ioctls require a Thread object, so this means
we are unnecessarily creating these objects in cases where we don't need
to. If said thread does not invoke BINDER_THREAD_EXIT on exit, Binder's
Thread struct stays around until the fd is closed. For long-lived
processes the Thread object is effectively leaked.
Furthermore, when the BINDER_GET_NODE_DEBUG_INFO ioctl is invoked by
libmemunreachable to ensure that objects reachable only through the
Binder driver are not considered leaked, this is done from a fork of the
process owning the fd, which means that it fails the group_leader check
inside get_current_thread(). This results in EINVAL errors for this
ioctl, causing libmemunreachable to report a false positive memory leak.
Thus, do not invoke get_current_thread() for ioctls that do not require
it.
