Comment from Alexei Starovoitov:
Patches 1 and 2 are missing for me, so I couldn't review properly,
but this diff looks odd.
It allows sched_cls prog type to attach to tun.
That means everything that sched_cls progs can do will be done from tun hook?
sched_cls assumes l2 and can modify the packet.
I think crashes are inevitable.
