[PATCHv3 0/6] tun zerocopy support

["Michael S. Tsirkin" <mst@redhat.com>]

This adds support for experimental zero copy transmit to tun.

This includes some patches from Ian's patchset to support zerocopy with tun,
so it should help that work progress: we are still trying to figure out
how to make everything work properly with tcp but tun seems easier, and
it's helpful by itself since not everyone can use macvtap.

Same as with macvtap, I get single-percentage wins in CPU utilization
on guest to external from this patchset, and a performance regression on
guest to host, so more work is needed until this feature can move out of
experimental status, but I think it's useful for some people already.

Pls review and consider for 3.6.

There's some code duplication between tun and macvtap now: common code
could move to net/core/datagram.c, this patch does not do this yet.

Changes from v2:
	Fixed some bugs so it's stable now
