[ Upstream commit e8b8ae7ce32e17a5c29f0289e9e2a39c7dcaa1b8 ]
While binder transactions with the same binder_proc as sender and recipient
are forbidden, transactions with the same task_struct as sender and
recipient are possible (even though currently there is a weird check in
binder_transaction() that rejects them in the target==0 case).
Therefore, task_struct identities can't be used to distinguish whether
the caller is running in the context of the sender or the recipient.
Since I see no easy way to make this WARN_ON() useful and correct, let's
just remove it.

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.
