Subject: [PATCH] opp: fix a missing check on list iterator

The bug is here:
    dev = new_dev->dev;

The list iterator 'new_dev' 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, add an check. Use a new variable 'iter' as the
list iterator, while use the old variable 'new_dev' as a dedicated
pointer to point to the found element.
