Subject: [PATCH net] netfilter: nf_flowtable: fix documentation

In the flowtable documentation there is a missing semicolon, the command
as is would give this error:

nftables.conf:5:27-33: Error: syntax error, unexpected devices, expecting newline or semicolon
hook ingress priority 0 devices = { br0, pppoe-data };
^^^^^^^
nftables.conf:4:12-13: Error: invalid hook (null)
flowtable ft {
^^

This is netfilter so even though it's tagged as net, I'm expecting
Pablo (or Jon) to take it. Please LMK if I'm wrong.

You're right.
As get_maintainers.pl didn't list [email protected] I missed it.
