Xin Long 42dec1dbe3 tipc: add NULL pointer check before calling kfree_rcu
Unlike kfree(p), kfree_rcu(p, rcu) won't do NULL pointer check. When
tipc_nametbl_remove_publ returns NULL, the panic below happens:

   BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000068

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 Restructured Text 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.
