commit 732b33d0dbf17e9483f0b50385bf606f724f50a2 upstream.

This patch addresses the following problems:
 - priv can never be NULL, so this part of the check is useless
 - if the loop ran through the whole list, priv->client is invalid and
it is more appropriate and sufficient to check for the end of
list_for_each_entry loop condition.
