Subject: [PATCH RFC] tun: export underlying socket
Tun device looks similar to a packet socket
in that both pass complete frames from/to userspace.
This patch fills in enough fields in the socket underlying tun driver
to support sendmsg/recvmsg operations, and exports access to this socket
to modules.
This way, code using raw sockets to inject packets
into a physical device, can support injecting
packets into host network stack almost without modification.
First user of this interface will be vhost virtualization
accelerator.

This patch is on top of net-next master.
An alternative approach would be to add an ioctl to tun, to export the
underlying socket to userspace: a uniform way to work with a network
device and the host stack might be useful there, as well.
Kernel users could then do sockfd_lookup to get the socket.
I decided against it for now as it requires more code.
Please comment.
