[PATCH RFC v3 5/9] tun: Pad virtio header with zero

[Akihiko Odaki]

tun used to simply advance iov_iter when it needs to pad virtio header.
This leaves the garbage in the buffer as is and prevents telling if the
header is padded or contains some real data.

In theory, a user of tun can fill the buffer with zero before calling
read() to avoid such a problem, but leaving the garbage in the buffer is
awkward anyway so fill the buffer in tun.
