thunderbolt: Fix KASAN reported stack out-of-bounds read in tb_retimer_scan()
KASAN reported following issue:

This happens because the loop variable still gets incremented by one so
max becomes 3 instead of 2, and this makes the second loop read past the
the array declared on the stack.
Fix this by assigning to max directly in the loop body.
