    librt: fix NULL pointer dereference (bug 28213)
0b26f7
    
0b26f7
    Helper thread frees copied attribute on NOTIFY_REMOVED message
0b26f7
    received from the OS kernel.  Unfortunately, it fails to check whether
0b26f7
    copied attribute actually exists (data.attr != NULL).  This worked
0b26f7
    earlier because free() checks passed pointer before actually
0b26f7
    attempting to release corresponding memory.  But
0b26f7
    __pthread_attr_destroy assumes pointer is not NULL.
0b26f7
    
0b26f7
    So passing NULL pointer to __pthread_attr_destroy will result in
0b26f7
    segmentation fault.  This scenario is possible if
0b26f7
    notification->sigev_notify_attributes == NULL (which means default
0b26f7
    thread attributes should be used).
