[PATCH] dmaengine: ppc4xx: Avoid returning iterator in ppc440spe_get_group_entry()

[Jakob Koschel <jkl820.git@gmail.com>]

Linus proposed to avoid any use of the list iterator variable after the
loop, in the attempt to move the list iterator variable declaration into
the marcro to avoid any potential misuse after the loop [1].

Instead we'll just return 'iter' within the iterator and otherwise NULL.
This ensures there is never a bogus pointer returned (e.g. if the list
is empty).
