Subject: [BUG iproute2] ip tuntap show

ip tuntap enumerates devices using /sys/class/net which is unusual.

Should we replace this enumeration using /proc/net/dev like "ip tunnel" ?

After "unshare -n" maybe mounting /sys should not be required for
proper iproute2 behavior.

At least ip command should adopt a common enumeration method.

What do you think ?

Thanks.
