historically the kernel queues packets two times. once
at the device and second in qdisc. this is believed to cause
interface stalls if one of these queues overruns.
setting IFF_ONE_QUEUE is the default in kernels >= 3.8. the
flag is ignored since then. see kernel commit

Import multiqueue constants from if_tun.h from 3.8-rc3. A new ifr flag
IFF_MULTI_QUEUE were introduced to create a multiqueue backend by calling
TUNSETIFF with the this flag and with the same interface name many times.
A new ioctl TUNSETQUEUE were introduced. When doing this ioctl with
IFF_DETACH_QUEUE, the queue were disabled in the linux kernel. When doing this
ioctl with IFF_ATTACH_QUEUE, the queue were enabled in the linux kernel.

Move public headers to include/net, and leave private headers in net/.
Put the virtio headers in include/net/tap.h, removing the multiple copies
that existed. Leave include/net/tap.h as the interface for NICs, and
net/tap_int.h as the interface for OS-specific parts of the tap backend.

Unbreak tap compilation on OS X
Broke the build on Linux due to a bad #if guard

Currently compiling the tap sources breaks on Mac OS X. This is because of:
1) tap-linux.h requiring Linux includes
2) typos
3) missing #includes
This patch adds what's necessary to compile tap happily on Mac OS X.
I haven't tested if using tap actually works, but I don't think that's a
major issue as that code was probably seriously untested before already.
I didn't split the patch, because it's only a few lines of code and
splitting is probably not worth the effort here.
