Kuniyuki Iwashima 0725e6afb5 tipc: Fix use-after-free in tipc_mon_reinit_self().
syzbot reported use-after-free of tipc_net(net)->monitors[]
in tipc_mon_reinit_self(). [0]

The array is protected by RTNL, but tipc_mon_reinit_self()
iterates over it without RTNL.

tipc_mon_reinit_self() is called from tipc_net_finalize(),
which is always under RTNL except for tipc_net_finalize_work().

Let's hold RTNL in tipc_net_finalize_work().

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.
