This branch looks like an unneeded "optimization". The generic loop
below should have the same effect with no measurable perf delta - and
smaller code. Just remove this.

More related to the general design: it looks wrong. What if
get_rx_bufs() will fail (ENOBUF) after successful peeking? With no more
incoming packets, later peek will return 0 and it looks like that the
half-processed packets will stay in the ring forever???

I think the 'ring produce' part should be moved into tun_do_read().

Cheers,

Paolo
