Subject: [PATCH] usb: gadget: u_ether: fix unsafe list iteration

list_for_each_entry_safe() is not safe for deleting entries from the
list if the spin lock, which protects it, is released and reacquired during
the list iteration. Fix this issue by replacing this construction with
a simple check if list is empty and removing the first entry in each
iteration. This is almost equivalent to a revert of the commit mentioned in
the Fixes: tag.

This patch fixes following issue:
