The file comes from io_uring_get_file(), the entire thing is within the
io_ring_ctx constructor and the only side effect there is ->ring_sock
creation.  And that stays until the io_ring_ctx is freed.  I'm _not_
saying I like io_uring style in general, BTW - in particular,
->ring_sock->file handling is a kludge (as is too much of interation
with AF_UNIX machinery there).  But from side effects POV we are fine
there.

... and it's actually broken, since this
        /* All copies must be 32-bit aligned and 32-bit size */
        if (!check_buffer(alloc, buffer, buffer_offset, bytes))
                return -EINVAL;
in binder_alloc_copy_to_buffer() should've been done *before*
fd_install().  If anything, it's an example of the situation when
fd_receive() would be wrong...
