commit 31643d84b8c3d9c846aa0e20bc033e46c68c7e7d upstream. With the introduction of binder_available_for_proc_work_ilocked() in commit1b77e9dcc3("ANDROID: binder: remove proc waitqueue") a binder thread can only "wait_for_proc_work" after its thread->looper has been marked as BINDER_LOOPER_STATE_{ENTERED|REGISTERED}. This means an unregistered reader risks waiting indefinitely for work since it never gets added to the proc->waiting_threads. If there are no further references to its waitqueue either the task will hang. The same applies to readers using the (e)poll interface. I couldn't find the rationale behind this restriction. So this patch restores the previous behavior of allowing unregistered threads to "wait_for_proc_work". Note that an error message for this scenario, which had previously become unreachable, is now re-enabled.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
