apparmor: fix invalid reference to index variable of iterator line 836

Once the loop on lines 836-853 is complete and exits normally, ent is a pointer to the dummy list head value. The derefernces accessible from eg the goto fail on line 860 or the various goto fail_lock's afterwards thus seem incorrect.
