The bug is here: return cluster;
The list iterator value 'cluster' will *always* be set and non-NULL by list_for_each_entry(), so it is incorrect to assume that the iterator value will be NULL if the list is empty or no element is found.
To fix the bug, return 'cluster' when found, otherwise return NULL.

Applied to arm64 (for-next/fixes), thanks!
