binder: check for binder_thread allocation failure in binder_poll()
commit f88982679f54f75daa5b8eff3da72508f1e7422f upstream. If the kzalloc() in binder_get_thread() fails, binder_poll() dereferences the resulting NULL pointer. Fix it by returning POLLERR if the memory allocation failed. This bug was found by syzkaller using fault injection.
