The node in question is receiving activate messages in another
thread after changing bearer status to allow message sending/
receiving in current thread:

Monitoring pointer in thread 2 is dereferenced before monitoring data
is allocated in thread 1. This causes kernel panic.

This commit fixes it by allocating the monitoring data before enabling
the bearer to receive messages.
