[PATCH 3/3] drivers/gpu/drm/vmwgfx/vmwgfx_ldu.c: remove invalid reference to list iterator variable

From: Julia Lawall <Julia.Lawall at lip6.fr>
If list_for_each_entry, etc complete a traversal of the list, the iterator
variable ends up pointing to an address at an offset from the list head,
and not a meaningful structure. Thus this value should not be used after
the end of the iterator.
After the iteractor, entry->base.crtc.fb is not a meaningful value. What
seems to be intended is crtc->fb, which gets the information from the last
element of the list.
A simplified version of the semantic match that finds this problem is as
follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/)
// <smpl>
@@
identifier c;
expression E;
iterator name list_for_each_entry;
statement S;
@@
list_for_each_entry(c,...) { ... when != break;
when forall
when strict
}
...
(
c = E
|
*c
)
// </smpl>
