devlink: remove trigger command from devlink-region.rst

2020-03-04T01:35:54+00:00

The devlink trigger command does not exist. While rewriting the
documentation for devlink into the reStructuredText format,
documentation for the trigger command was accidentally merged in. This
occurred because the author was also working on a potential extension to
devlink regions which included this trigger command, and accidentally
squashed the documentation incorrectly.

Further review eventually settled on using the previously unused "new"
command instead of creating a new trigger command.

Fix this by removing mention of the trigger command from the
documentation.

netfilter: nf_flowtable: fix documentation

2020-01-31T18:31:42+00:00

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 };
