Subject: [PATCH net-next v2 2/2] tap: tap_open(): correctly initialize
 socket uid

sock_init_data() assumes that the `struct socket` passed in input is
contained in a `struct socket_alloc` allocated with sock_alloc().
However, tap_open() passes a `struct socket` embedded in a `struct
tap_queue` allocated with sk_alloc().
This causes a type confusion when issuing a container_of() with
SOCK_INODE() in sock_init_data() which results in assigning a wrong
sk_uid to the `struct sock` in input.
On default configuration, the type confused field overlaps with
padding bytes between `int vnet_hdr_sz` and `struct tap_dev __rcu
*tap` in `struct tap_queue`, which makes the uid of all tap sockets 0,
i.e., the root one.  Fix the assignment by overriding it with the
correct uid.

Fixes: 86741ec25462 ("net: core: Add a UID field to struct sock.")
