Subject: [net-next rfc 2/3] tuntap: reduce the size of tun_struct by using flex array

This patch switches to use flex array to implement the flow caches, it can
brings several advantages:

- save the size of the tun_struct structure, which can allows us to increase the
  upper limit of queues in the future.
- avoid higher order memory allocation which could be used when switching to use
  pure hashing in flow cache who may demand a larger size array in the future.

After this patch, the size of tun_struct on x86_64 were reduced from 8512 to
328.
