4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Riley Andrews <riandr...@google.com>
commit 00b40d613352c623aaae88a44e5ded7c912909d7 upstream.
Use wake_up_interruptible_sync() to hint to the scheduler binder
transactions are synchronous wakeups. Disable preemption while waking
to avoid ping-ponging on the binder lock.
