[net-next RFC 6/8] macvtap: allow TUNSETIFF to create multiqueue device

[Jason Wang]

Though the queue were in fact created by open(), we still need to add this check
to be compatible with tuntap which can let mgmt software use a single API to
manage queues. This patch only validates the device name and moves the TUNSETIFF
to a helper.
