SubjectRe: [PATCH net] tuntap: correctly set SOCKWQ_ASYNC_NOSPACE
From

> When link is down, writes to the device might fail with

> fix, tun_net_open() attempts to wake up writers - but that is only
> effective if SOCKWQ_ASYNC_NOSPACE has been set in the past. This is

> This patch fixes this by making sure SOCKWQ_ASYNC_NOSPACE is set when

> raised in either tun_chr_poll() or tun_sock_write_space() after device
> is up.
