The bug is here:
p->target_id, p->target_lun);
The list iterator 'p' will point to a bogus position containing
HEAD if the list is empty or no element is found. This case must
be checked before any use of the iterator, otherwise it will
lead to a invalid memory access.
To fix this bug, add an check. Use a new variable 'iter' as the
list iterator, while use the origin variable 'p' as a dedicated
pointer to point to the found element.
