[PATCH net-next v5 18/18] 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'.

To either continue iterating from that position or skip the iteration
(if the previous iteration was complete) list_prepare_entry() is used.
