gcc warns about what it thinks is an uninitialized variable

That problem cannot really happen, as we check data->package.count
to ensure that the loop is entered at least once.
However, something that can indeed happen is returning an incorrect
wifi_pkg pointer in case none of the elements are what we are looking
for.
This modifies the loop again, to only return a correct object, and
to shut up that warning.

---Thanks, Arnd! I've pushed this to our internal tree and it will eventually reach the mainline, via our normal upstreaming process.
