From: Aditya Kumar Singh <aditya.kumar.singh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> The for_each_link_data() macro currently declares a local variable __sdata directly, which could lead to compiler warnings or errors when reused in the same function or within switch-case blocks due to variable redefinition or invalid scoping. To address this, restructure the macro to use an outer for-loop that runs only once, allowing safe declaration of __sdata without polluting the outer scope. This ensures compatibility with static analyzers. No functional changes; this is purely a cleanup to improve macro hygiene.
