Some untrusted applications will not have access to open fastrpc
device nodes and a privileged process can open the device node on
behalf of the application. Add a check to restrict such untrusted
applications from offloading to signed PD.

If the root user sets 0666 for fastrpc nodes, it is expected that this check will get bypassed.

So, any process will be trusted? This looks so Android-centric. Please come
with a better way to define 'trusted'.
On a typical UNIX system a used has multiple supplementary GIDs (which
can be used to allow access to the devices) which have no relationship
to the process effective GID. On a multi-user machine it might be
logical that fastrpc nodes have separate group-id and group's read/write
permissions. But then each of the users has their own unique 'effective'
GID. Which of those should be using for computing the 'trusted' status?

Thanks for your suggestions, Dmitry. I am considering dropping this patch and system unsignedPD patch
from this series(due to the dependency). I'm redesigning the trusted-process term to make it more generic.
Planning to make it depend on the group IDs and have a check with both primary and supplementary GIDs
of the process. I'll share the design with you along with the changes once it's ready.
