There is a racing condition between workqueue created when enabling
bearer and another thread created when disabling bearer right after
that as follow:

enabling_bearer                          | disabling_bearer
---------------                          | ----------------

 schedule_work(&tn->work);               |  tipc_mon_delete()
 ...                                     |  {
}                                        |   ...
                                         |   write_lock_bh(&mon->lock);
                                         |   mon->self = NULL;

{                                        |

   write_lock_bh(&mon->lock);            |
   mon->self->addr = tipc_own_addr(net); |
   write_unlock_bh(&mon->lock);          |
   ...                                   |
  }                                      |

}                                        |

'mon->self' is set to NULL in disabling_bearer thread and dereferenced
later in enabling_bearer thread.

This commit fixes this issue by validating 'mon->self' before assigning
node address to it.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
