Subject: [PATCH net-next 14/15] ipvlan: Remove usage of list iterator variable for the loop body
Date:   Thu,  7 Apr 2022 12:28:59 +0200

In preparation to limit the scope of the list iterator variable to the
list traversal loop, use a dedicated pointer to iterate through the
list [1].

Since that variable should not be used past the loop iteration, a
separate variable is used to 'remember the current location within the
loop'.
By avoiding the use of the iterator variable after the loop, we can lower
the scope of it to the list traversal macros in the future.

To either continue iterating from that position or start a new
iteration (if the previous iteration was complete) list_prepare_entry()
is used.
