Hi Gregory, Ori,

I just recognized that 'cmd_flex_item.c' doesn't have an explicit maintainer,
which makes it fallback to Xialyoun, but I don't think that is related to
existing coverage.

Since the file is related to rte_flow and only user of it (also author of it)
is nvidia, can one of you take the maintainership of the file?

It is easier to add it to 'Flow API' block in MAINTAINERS file,
that Ori already is the maintainer, if that suits.

And perhaps, if you guys are OK, Gregory can be added to 'Flow API' too,
it is good to have multiple maintainers.

Thanks,
ferruh
