Subject: [PATCH net-next 1/1] driver: tun: Use new macro SOCK_IOC_MAGIC instead of literal number 0x89

From: Gao Feng <fgao@...ai8.com>

The current codes use _IOC_TYPE(cmd) == 0x89 to check if the cmd is one
socket ioctl command like SIOCGIFHWADDR. But the literal number 0x89 may
confuse readers. So create one macro SOCK_IOC_MAGIC like SPI_IOC_MAGIC to
enhance the readability.
