[RFC PATCH] tun: don't zeroize sock->file on detach

[Stanislav Kinsbursky <skinsbursky@parallels.com>]

This is a fix for bug, introduced in 3.4 kernel by commit
1ab5ecb90cb6a3df1476e052f76a6e8f6511cb3d, which, among other things, replaced
simple sock_put() by sk_release_kernel(). Below is sequence, which leads to
oops for non-persistent devices:

tun_chr_close()
tun_detach()				<== tun->socket.file = NULL
tun_free_netdev()
sk_release_sock()
sock_release(sock->file == NULL)
iput(SOCK_INODE(sock))			<== dereference on NULL pointer

This patch just removes zeroing of socket's file from __tun_detach().
sock_release() will do this.
