Subject: [PATCH net-next 0/3] tun: timer cleanups

While working on a syzkaller issue that might have been
fixed already by Cong Wang in commit 0ad646c81b21
("tun: call dev_get_valid_name() before register_netdevice()")
I made three small changes related to flow_gc_timer.

Eric Dumazet (3):
  tun: do not block BH again in tun_flow_cleanup()
  tun: avoid extra timer schedule in tun_flow_cleanup()
  tun: do not arm flow_gc_timer in tun_flow_init()
