Subject: [PATCH] md: fix missing check on list iterator

The bug is here:
    bypass_pg(m, pg, bypassed);

The list iterator 'pg' will point to a bogus position containing
HEAD if the list is empty or no element is found. This case must
be checked before any use of the iterator, otherwise it will lead
to a invalid memory access.

To fix this bug, run bypass_pg(m, pg, bypassed); and return 0
when found, otherwise return -EINVAL.
