Subject: [PATCH net-next 15/15] team: Remove use of list iterator variable for list_for_each_entry_from()

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 skip the iteration
(if the previous iteration was complete) list_prepare_entry() is used.
