Subject: tun: read vnet_hdr_sz once
From: Willem de Bruijn <willemb@xxxxxxxxxx>
[ Upstream commit e1edab87faf6ca30cd137e0795bc73aa9a9a22ec ]
When IFF_VNET_HDR is enabled, a virtio_net header must precede data.
Data length is verified to be greater than or equal to expected header
length tun->vnet_hdr_sz before copying.
Read this value once and cache locally, as it can be updated between
the test and use (TOCTOU).
