Subject: [PATCH 5.18 15/67] KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: fix incorrect NULL check on list iterator

From: Xiaomeng Tong <xiam0nd.tong@...il.com>

commit 300981abddcb13f8f06ad58f52358b53a8096775 upstream.

The bug is here:
	if (!p)
                return ret;

The list iterator value 'p' will *always* be set and non-NULL by
list_for_each_entry(), so it is incorrect to assume that the iterator
value will be NULL if the list is empty or no element is found.

To fix the bug, Use a new value 'iter' as the list iterator, while use
the old value 'p' as a dedicated variable to point to the found element.
