[PATCH 2/3] tun: reuse IFF_ flags internally

From: Michael S. Tsirkin
Date: Wed Nov 19 2014 - 11:18:59 EST


By reusing IFF_ flags for internal tun device flags,
we can get rid of a bunch of code translating back
and forth.

This cleanup exposes a bug: TUNGETFEATURES reports IFF_TUN and IFF_TAP
which aren't legal for TUNSETFEATURES (but, correctly, doesn't report
IFF_PERSIST which also isn't legal there).

I'm not fixing this bug at the moment, just in case some weird
userspace depends on it, using TUNGETFEATURES to check device type.

Follow-up patches will get rid of some of TUN_ macros,
using IFF_ directly instead.
