Subject: fs/proc/kcore.c: fix coccinelle reported ERROR instances
Date: Tue, 29 Oct 2024 06:46:52 +0100

Coccinelle complains about the nested reuse of the pointer `iter' with
different pointer type:

./fs/proc/kcore.c:515:26-30: ERROR: invalid reference to the index variable of the iterator on line 499
./fs/proc/kcore.c:534:23-27: ERROR: invalid reference to the index variable of the iterator on line 499
./fs/proc/kcore.c:550:40-44: ERROR: invalid reference to the index variable of the iterator on line 499
./fs/proc/kcore.c:568:27-31: ERROR: invalid reference to the index variable of the iterator on line 499
./fs/proc/kcore.c:581:28-32: ERROR: invalid reference to the index variable of the iterator on line 499
./fs/proc/kcore.c:599:27-31: ERROR: invalid reference to the index variable of the iterator on line 499
./fs/proc/kcore.c:607:38-42: ERROR: invalid reference to the index variable of the iterator on line 499
./fs/proc/kcore.c:614:26-30: ERROR: invalid reference to the index variable of the iterator on line 499

Replacing `struct kcore_list *iter' with `struct kcore_list *tmp' doesn't change the
scope and the functionality is the same and coccinelle seems happy.

NOTE: There was an issue with using `struct kcore_list *pos' as the nested iterator.
      The build did not work!
