bearer_disable() frees b->disc with tipc_disc_delete()'s plain kfree(),
but tipc_disc_rcv() still dereferences b->disc in RX softirq under
rcu_read_lock() (tipc_udp_recv -> tipc_rcv -> tipc_disc_rcv).

L2 bearers are safe thanks to the synchronize_net() in
tipc_disable_l2_media(), but the UDP bearer defers that call to the
cleanup_bearer() workqueue, so the discoverer is freed with no grace
period:

 BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in tipc_disc_rcv (net/tipc/discover.c:149)
 Read of size 8 at addr ffff88802348b728 by task poc_tipc/184

  tipc_rcv (net/tipc/node.c:2126)

  udp_rcv (net/ipv4/udp.c:2643)

 Freed by task 181:
  kfree (mm/slub.c:6565)
  bearer_disable (net/tipc/bearer.c:418)
  tipc_nl_bearer_disable (net/tipc/bearer.c:1001)

The bearer is freed with kfree_rcu(); free the discoverer the same way.
Add an rcu_head to struct tipc_discoverer and free it and its skb from an
RCU callback.

Reachable from an unprivileged user namespace: the TIPCv2 genl family is
netnsok and its bearer commands have no GENL_ADMIN_PERM. Needs CONFIG_TIPC
and CONFIG_TIPC_MEDIA_UDP.
