Replace do-while loops with while loops to properly check for NULL
before dereferencing pointers returned by ilist_get_cur() and
slist_get_cur().
Svace report:
1) Return value of 'ilist_get_cur' is dereferenced at
ausearch-match.c:138 without checking for NULL (CWE476)
2) Return value of 'slist_get_cur' is dereferenced at
ausearch-match.c:223 without checking for NULL (CWE476)
