With all the checks for 'tablename' being non-NULL, this code was rather stupid and really hard to read. And the fix is indeed quite simple: If a table name was given, use nft_table_builtin_find() and just flush its chain cache. Otherwise iterate over all builtin tables without any conditionals for 'tablename'.
