Let's try to not make convoluted code worse. Do the following 2 patches
achieve what you are looking for? Originally I had a single patch (what
is now 2/2) but I figured it would be cleaner to break out the unrelated
change into what is now 1/2.

If you want I can submit these changes separately.

Subject: [PATCH 1/2] net: dsa: mv88e6xxx: remove redundant check in
 mv88e6xxx_port_vlan()

We know that "dev > dst->last_switch" in the "else" block.
In other words, that "dev - dst->last_switch" is > 0.

dsa_port_bridge_num_get(dp) can be 0, but the check
"if (bridge_num + dst->last_switch != dev) continue", rewritten as
"if (bridge_num != dev - dst->last_switch) continue", aka
"if (bridge_num != something which cannot be 0) continue",
makes it redundant to have the extra "if (!bridge_num) continue" logic,
since a bridge_num of zero would have been skipped anyway.

Subject: [PATCH 2/2] net: dsa: mv88e6xxx: refactor mv88e6xxx_port_vlan()

To avoid bugs and speculative execution exploits due to type-confused
pointers at the end of a list_for_each_entry() loop, one measure is to
restrict code to not use the iterator variable outside the loop block.

In the case of mv88e6xxx_port_vlan(), this isn't a problem, as we never
let the loops exit through "natural causes" anyway, by using a "found"
variable and then using the last "dp" iterator prior to the break, which
is a safe thing to do.

Nonetheless, with the expected new syntax, this pattern will no longer
be possible.

Profit off of the occasion and break the two port finding methods into
smaller sub-functions. Somehow, returning a copy of the iterator pointer
is still accepted.

This change makes it redundant to have a "bool found", since the "dp"
from mv88e6xxx_port_vlan() now holds NULL if we haven't found what we
were looking for.
