Subject: [PATCH v2] bpf: replace usage of supported with dedicated list iterator variable

To move the list iterator variable into the list_for_each_entry_*()
macro in the future it should be avoided to use the list iterator
variable after the loop body.

To *never* use the list iterator variable after the loop it was
concluded to use a separate iterator variable instead of a
found boolean [1].

This removes the need to use the found variable (existed & supported)
and simply checking if the variable was set, can determine if the
break/goto was hit.
