To be honest, I'm not entirely happy with what Binder is using netlink
for either, but it is what it is.  
If we're both not happy let's take this opportunity to find a better
solution?  
My understanding is that userspace is already using or looking into
using the netlink uapi that Binder exposes here. I don't know to what
extent; it's not used *that* much yet, but it may still be tricky to
change the uapi at this point.
Let's explore it? What user space components would need to be updated?
What's a better design?
