Subject: [PATCH] md: md1: fix an incorrect NULL check on list iterator
Date:   Sun, 27 Mar 2022 16:00:02 +0800
Message-Id: <20220327080002.11923-1-xiam0nd.tong@gmail.com>
Precedence: bulk

The bug is here:
	if (!rdev)

The list iterator value 'rdev' will *always* be set and non-NULL
by rdev_for_each(), so it is incorrect to assume that the iterator
value will be NULL if the list is empty or no element found.
Otherwise it will bypass the NULL check and lead to invalid memory
access passing the check.

To fix the bug, use a new variable 'iter' as the list iterator,
while use the original variable 'pdev' as a dedicated pointer to
point to the found element.
