Bug description:
The rolling GCP kernel for bionic is missing
CONFIG_ANDROID_BINDER_IPC=m which is enabled in the standard Ubuntu
kernel since 19.04 and available through the HWE kernels in Bionic.

As we require CONFIG_ANDROID_BINDER_IPC=m for a not released product
in our kernels it would be great if we can import the relevant config
changes to the GCP kernel (haven't yet checked our other cloud
kernels).

All relevant changes from Christian Brauner to enable binder in the
Ubuntu kernel are present in the GCP kernel (see
https://git.launchpad.net/~canonical-kernel/ubuntu/+source/linux-
gcp/+git/bionic/log/?h=gcp-edge&qt=grep&q=brauner).

See https://kernel.ubuntu.com/git/ubuntu/ubuntu-
bionic.git/commit/debian.master/config/config.common.ubuntu?h=hwe&id=a758aeb0bb0f52ccbee99f850709c57711753b33
and https://kernel.ubuntu.com/git/ubuntu/ubuntu-
bionic.git/commit/debian.master/config/config.common.ubuntu?h=hwe&id=4b44b695fb5ee2f405d0ad4eda2fc2cad856414c
for the relevant config changes in the Ubuntu kernel from Seth.
