[PATCH 1/2] ip_frag: fix unsafe TAILQ usage

Wed Apr 8 18:16:16 CEST 2026
The frag table next pointer was being access after TAILQ_REMOVE().
This is not safe since it depends on TAILQ_REMOVE() not changing
next pointer. Fix by using RTE_TAILQ_FOREACH_SAFE().
Fixes: 95908f52393d ("ip_frag: free mbufs on reassembly table destroy")
