Subject: [PATCH] powerpc/PCI: Fix NULL dereference in sys_pciconfig_iobase()
 list traversal

3bc955987fb3 ("powerpc/PCI: Use list_for_each_entry() for bus traversal")
caused a NULL pointer dereference because the loop body set the iterator to
NULL:

  Unable to handle kernel paging request for data at address 0x00000000
  Faulting instruction address: 0xc000000000041d78
  Oops: Kernel access of bad area, sig: 11 [#1]

  LR [c000000000041e0c] .sys_pciconfig_iobase+0xfc/0x1f0
  Call Trace:

  [c0000003b4787e30] [c000000000009ed8] syscall_exit+0x0/0x98

Fix it by using a temporary variable for the iterator.
