tun: Utilize the normal socket network namespace refcounting.
There is no need for tun to do the weird network namespace refcounting. The existing network namespace refcounting in tfile has almost exactly the same lifetime. So rewrite the code to use the struct sock network namespace refcounting and remove the unnecessary hand rolled network namespace refcounting and the unncesary tfile->net. This change allows the tun code to directly call sock_put bypassing sock_release and making SOCK_EXTERNALLY_ALLOCATED unnecessary. Remove the now unncessary tun_release so that if anything tries to use the sock_release code path the kernel will oops, and let us know about the bug. The macvtap code already uses it's internal socket this way. Signed-off-by: "Eric W. Biederman" <ebiederm@xmission.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
