There really is only one "canonical" thing, and that is in the libbinder
code in the Android userspace repository.  And it's not really
"documentation" so much as, "a C file that interacts with the ioctls in
the binder kernel code" :(

Think of this as just a random character driver with some funny ioctls
that will never get really documented as there is only one user of it.
