tuntap: choose the txq based on rxq
This patch implements a simple multiqueue flow steering policy - tx follows rx
for tun/tap. The idea is simple, it just choose the txq based on which rxq it
comes. The flow were identified through the rxhash of a skb, and the hash to
queue mapping were recorded in a hlist with an ageing timer to retire the
mapping. The mapping were created when tun receives packet from userspace, and
was quired in .ndo_select_queue().
I run co-current TCP_CRR test and didn't see any mapping manipulation helpers in
perf top, so the overhead could be negelected.
