It seems like you're doing a good deal more in this patch than just disabling
all active bearers without doing a name search.  The description is implemented
in the for loop of tipc_bearer_stop.  Whats the rest of it for?

I get why you're removing the tipc_mode check above, but why are you adding it
here?  commit d0021b252eaf65ca07ed14f0d66425dd9ccab9a6 modified tipc_bearers so
that calling this function should be tipc_mode safe (i.e. looking for a bearer
prior to entering TIPC_NET_MODE will return a NULL result).  Did you find a
subsequent problem?
