[PATCH net-next 05/14] tipc: Check for disabled bearer when processing incoming messages

[Paul Gortmaker <paul.gortmaker@windriver.com>]

From: Allan Stephens <allan.stephens@windriver.com>

Add a check to tipc_recv_msg() to ensure it discards messages
arriving on a newly disabled bearer.  This is needed to deal with a
race condition that can arise if the bearer is in the midst of being
disabled when it receives a message.  Performing the check after
tipc_net_lock has been taken ensures that TIPC's bearers are in a
stable state while the message is being processed.
