We used to initialize ptr_ring during TUNSETIFF, this is because its
size depends on the tx_queue_len of netdevice. And we try to clean it
up when socket were detached from netdevice. A race were spotted when
trying to do uninit during a read which will lead a use after free for
pointer ring. Solving this by always initialize a zero size ptr_ring
in open() and do resizing during TUNSETIFF, and then we can safely do
cleanup during close(). With this, there's no need for the workaround
that was introduced by commit 4df0bfc79904 ("tun: fix a memory leak
for tfile->tx_array").

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
