Thanks for catching the bug. It was introduced by 800deef3
[ocfs2: use list_for_each_entry where benefical]. I blame Christoph.

However, this is not the correct solution. The goal of the
original code, which used to use list_for_each(), was to leave lock
non-NULL if the cookie was found. Your version merely exits the loop on
the first non-matching entry, always leaving lock==NULL if there is a
non-matching entry.
One possible solution is to return the original code:

Another approach would be to keep list_for_each_entry() around,
but use a better check for entry existence:

I think I like the second one better. Sunil, what do you think?
