[PATCH v2] netfilter: nf_tables: replace unnecessary use of list_for_each_entry_continue()

[Jakob Koschel <jakobkoschel@gmail.com>]

Since there is no way for list_for_each_entry_continue() to start
interating in the middle of the list they can be replaced with a call
to list_for_each_entry().

In preparation to limit the scope of the list iterator to the list
traversal loop, the list iterator variable 'rule' should not be used
past the loop.

v1->v2:
- also replace first usage of list_for_each_entry_continue() (Florian
Westphal)
