Subject: [PATCH nft,v2 1/5] libnftables: add nft_run_cmd_release() helper and use it
Date: Tue, 23 Jun 2026 19:21:24 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260623172128.401234-2-pablo@netfilter.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260623172128.401234-1-pablo@netfilter.org>

Wrap the code to release the list of commands in a helper function, then
use it to consolidate codebase.

Not functional changes are intended.
