Getting a build error [1] with icc [2].
Because commit 9a761de8ea14 ("net/mlx5: flow counter support") adds variable
"device_attr" into loop scope, but there is already a variable with same name in
function scope.
In this case the variable in the loop scope should be used and compiler error
looks correct, not sure why others compilers not complain about it.
