Subject: [PATCH] ice: ice_sched: fix an incorrect NULL check on list iterator

The bugs are here:
	if (old_agg_vsi_info)
	if (old_agg_vsi_info && !old_agg_vsi_info->tc_bitmap[0]) {

The list iterator value 'old_agg_vsi_info' will *always* be set
and non-NULL by list_for_each_entry_safe(), so it is incorrect
to assume that the iterator value will be NULL if the list is
empty or no element found (in this case, the check
'if (old_agg_vsi_info)' will always be true unexpectly).

To fix the bug, use a new variable 'iter' as the list iterator,
while use the original variable 'old_agg_vsi_info' as a dedicated
pointer to point to the found element.
