Summary:                    [patch] Race condition between bridge and channel
masquerading
Description: 
The bridge checks for zombieness

/* Stop if we're a zombie or need a soft hangup */
		if (ast_test_flag(c0, AST_FLAG_ZOMBIE) || ast_check_hangup_locked(c0)
||
		    ast_test_flag(c1, AST_FLAG_ZOMBIE) || ast_check_hangup_locked(c1))
{

To see if some of the channels is going through a masquerading, but non
atomically, access to channel member variables happens a few lines later

if (!ast_strlen_zero(pbx_builtin_getvar_helper(c0, "BRIDGEPEER")))
     pbx_builtin_setvar_helper(c0, "BRIDGEPEER", c1->name);

Without locking on those acceses. That causes random crashes when the
memory is touched or free'd later.

Make code that updates BRIDGEPEER variable thread-safe.

It is not safe to read the name field of an ast_channel without the
channel
locked.  This patch fixes some places in channel.c where this was being
done,
and lead to crashes related to masquerades.
