[PATCH v8 22/28] SELinux: Verify LSM display sanity in binder

Verify that the tasks on the ends of a binder transaction
use LSM display values that don't cause SELinux contexts
to be interpreted by another LSM or another LSM's context
to be interpreted by SELinux. No judgement is made in cases
that where SELinux contexts are not used in the binder
transaction.
