The predecrement in the --port is ok, since ->vlan_filter is
(bizarrely) 1-indexed. But I'm changing 'if' to 'while' since it's a
bit ugly to rely on MLX4_MAX_PORTS being 2.

[I'm not sure why one even bothers populating the ->vlan_filter array:
mlx4.h isn't #included by anything outside
drivers/net/ethernet/mellanox/mlx4/, and "git grep -C2 -w vlan_filter
drivers/net/ethernet/mellanox/mlx4/" seems to suggest that the
vlan_filter elements aren't used at all.]

Prefer to leave as-is. There is no way that mlx4 will ever have more than 2 ports.

This fix is wrong as it hits the case that i arrived the last value then below code will access to a non valid entry in the array.

The expected fix should be:
while (--i >= 0)

                for (port = 1; port <= MLX4_MAX_PORTS; port++)
