Any process with the transfer_charge permission. On Android this is
the graphics allocator HAL which would have this added to its policy.

Sorry, why would you be expecting enforcement with no LSM? Are you
suggesting that this check should be different than the ones that
already exist for Binder here?

Binder has no direct knowledge of which process has been designated as
an allocator / charge transferrer. That is defined externally by
whoever configures the system.
