Subject: scsi: sg: don't return bogus Sg_requests

From: Johannes Thumshirn <jthumshirn@xxxxxxx>

commit 48ae8484e9fc324b4968d33c585e54bc98e44d61 upstream.

If the list search in sg_get_rq_mark() fails to find a valid request, we
return a bogus element. This then can later lead to a GPF in
sg_remove_scat().

So don't return bogus Sg_requests in sg_get_rq_mark() but NULL in case
the list search doesn't find a valid request.
