Inaky Perez-Gonzalez 1d7b33f77b wimax: fix oops in wimax_dev_get_by_genl_info() when looking up non-wimax iface
When a non-wimax interface is looked up by the stack, a bad pointer is
returned when the looked-up interface is not found in the list (of
registered WiMAX interfaces). This causes an oops in the caller when
trying to use the pointer.

Fix by properly setting the pointer to NULL if we don't exit from the
list_for_each() with a found entry.

*
* We assign a single generic netlink family ID to each device (to
* simplify lookup).
*
* We need a way to map family ID to a wimax_dev pointer.
*
* The idea is to use a very simple lookup. Using a netlink attribute
* with (for example) the interface name implies a heavier search over
* all the network devices; seemed kind of a waste given that we know
* we are looking for a WiMAX device and that most systems will have
* just a single WiMAX adapter.
*
* We put all the WiMAX devices in the system in a linked list and
* match the generic link family ID against the list.
*
* By using a linked list, the case of a single adapter in the system
* becomes (almost) no overhead, while still working for many more. If
* it ever goes beyond two, I'll be surprised.
