Subject: [PATCH net-next 3/5] net/mlx5e: Replace recursive VLAN push handling with an iterative loop

From: Gal Pressman <gal@...dia.com>

mlx5e_tc_act_vlan_add_push_action() uses tail-recursion to walk through
a stack of VLAN devices.

There is no need for a complicated recursion with unnecessary stack
consumption and less obvious code flow, rewrite the function so that it
uses a do while loop instead.
