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