Subject: [PATCH] tun: avoid double free in tun_free_netdev

Avoid double free in tun_free_netdev() by moving the
dev->tstats and tun->security allocs to a new ndo_init routine
(tun_net_init()) that will be called by register_netdevice().
ndo_init is paired with the desctructor (tun_free_netdev()),
so if there's an error in register_netdevice() the destructor
will handle the frees.
