ocfs2_connection_find() returns pointer to bad structure
If ocfs2_live_connection_list is empty, ocfs2_connection_find() will return
a pointer to the LIST_HEAD, cast as a ocfs2_live_connection. This can cause
an oops when ocfs2_control_send_down() dereferences c->oc_conn:
Call Trace:
[<ffffffffa00c2a3c>] ocfs2_control_message+0x28c/0x2b0 [ocfs2_stack_user]

Fix by explicitly returning NULL if no match is found.
