netfilter: nf_tables: allow to register flowtable with no devices
A flowtable might be composed of dynamic interfaces only. Such dynamic interfaces might show up at a later stage. This patch allows users to register a flowtable with no devices. Once the dynamic interface becomes available, the user adds the dynamic devices to the flowtable. Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>
