[PATCH 3.8-rc] tuntap: refuse to re-attach to different tun_struct

[PATCH 3.8-rc] tuntap: refuse to re-attach to different tun_struct

[Stefan Hajnoczi]

Multiqueue tun devices support detaching a tun_file from its tun_struct
and re-attaching at a later point in time.  This allows users to disable
a specific queue temporarily.

ioctl(TUNSETIFF) allows the user to specify the network interface to
attach by name.  This means the user can attempt to attach to interface
"B" after detaching from interface "A".

The driver is not designed to support this so check we are re-attaching
to the right tun_struct.  Failure to do so may lead to oops.

This fix is for 3.8-rc.

I agree this is a bug but even with this patch, we still allow:

SETIFF
SETQUEUE (DISABLED)
SETIFF

Originally the rule always was that repeated setiff calls fail with
EINVAL. We broke that when we set tun to NULL.  It's probably worth
preserving that, even if queue is disabled.  Applying something like the below
instead will address this concern, won't it?

Note: works with regular userspace but I didn't test
multiqueue userspace. What do you think.

Or just fail when tun->detached is not NULL at the beginning of
tun_set_iff()?

Yes that'll also work I think. If you prefer this pls send patch.
