[PATCH v2] gpiolib: fix warning about iterator

[Sudip Mukherjee]

We were getting build warning about "iterator" being used uninitialized.
Use iterator properly to fix the build warning and in the process remove
the variable "pos" which is not required now.

v1: at the end of the loop iterator will point to head and we are trying
to check its field.
