Hi,

FYI, your patch has been queued to LTS release 17.11.6

Note it hasn't been pushed to http://dpdk.org/browse/dpdk-stable yet.
It will be pushed if I get no objection by 03/13/19. So please
shout if anyone has objection.

Also note that after the patch there's a diff of the upstream commit vs the patch applied
to the branch. If the code is different (ie: not only metadata diffs), due for example to
a change in context or macro names, please double check it.

Thanks.

Yongseok

Subject: [PATCH] examples/flow_filtering: fix example documentation

[ upstream commit d67b3f11d352544063fbdf2a8232563d88870d6a ]

Previous patch removed the VLAN item from example code.
This patch fixes the code and documentation accordingly.

Code update includes fix of comments, and removal of redundant
variables and their initialization.
Documentation update reflects the code changes done in previous
patch and in this patch.

Fixes: 9af4eb565710 ("examples/flow_filtering: remove VLAN item")
