Commit 7fb09a737536 ("ice: Modify recursive way of adding nodes")
changed ice_sched_add_nodes_to_layer() from recursive control flow to an
iterative loop.
Inside the loop, first_teid_ptr may be set to the address of a
block-local variable:
u32 temp;
...
if (num_added)
first_teid_ptr = &temp;
On the next loop iteration, first_teid_ptr may be passed to
ice_sched_add_nodes_to_hw_layer(), after temp from the previous
iteration has gone out of scope.
Move temp outside the loop so the pointer remains valid for the lifetime
of ice_sched_add_nodes_to_layer().
This was found by Clang with LifetimeSafety enabled while testing C
language support on a Linux allmodconfig build.
