fld_client_lookup() retries for another target, if the remote
target is deactive. This was introduced in
http://review.whamcloud.com/#/c/14313/ For getting the
next export target from the list, we use:
target = list_entry(target->ft_chain.next, struct
lu_fld_target,ft_chain);

Now for tests that deactivate the last target,
&(target->ft_chain) is the last entry in the list, and the
next of the last entry(target->ft_chain.next) is the list_head.
Using the macro list_entry maps the list_head pointer back into
a pointer to the structure that contains the list_head. Thus,
it turns the head of the list into its containing
structure(lu_fld_target).
Hence, since the head of the list does not have any data
associated with it, the containing structure(i.e.target)
formed from the head of the list also does not have any data.
Therefore, an export target with no obd device data is generated.
This corrupted export target(generated from the head of the
list) causes the assertion.

The fix is: While fld_client_lookup retries for another target,
if the next entry in the export target list is the head of the
list(&fld->lcf_targets), move to the next entry after the
head(target->ft_chain.next->next) and retrieve the target.
Else retrieve the next target entry(target->ft_chain.next).
