[PATCH] ocfs2: fix check if list iterator did find an element

From: Jakob Koschel
Date: Sat Mar 19 2022 - 16:31:55 EST


Instead of setting 'res' to NULL, it should only be set if
the suitable element was found.

In the original code 'res' would have been set to an incorrect pointer
if the list is empty.

In preparation to limit the scope of the list iterator to the list
traversal loop, use a dedicated pointer pointing to the found element [1].
