net: rtnetlink: remove local list in __linkwatch_run_queue()
Due to linkwatch_forget_dev() (and perhaps others?) checking for
list_empty(&dev->link_watch_list), we must have all manipulations
of even the local on-stack list 'wrk' here under spinlock, since
even that list can be reached otherwise via dev->link_watch_list.
This is already the case, but makes this a bit counter-intuitive,
often local lists are used to _not_ have to use locking for their
local use.
Remove the local list as it doesn't seem to serve any purpose.
While at it, move a variable declaration into the loop using it.
