[PATCH net-next v3 4/9] Documentation: xfrm_sync: Properly reindent list text

From: Bagas Sanjaya <hidden>
Date: 2025-11-03 01:51:08
Also in: linux-doc, lkml
Subsystem: documentation, networking [general], the rest · Maintainers: Jonathan Corbet, "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Linus Torvalds

List texts are currently aligned at the start of column, rather than
after the list marker. Reindent them.
