When using devmap to redirect packets between interfaces,
xdp_do_flush() is usually a must to flush any batched
packets. Unfortunately this is missed in current tuntap
implementation.
Unlike most hardware driver which did XDP inside NAPI loop and call
xdp_do_flush() at then end of each round of poll. TAP did it in the
context of process e.g tun_get_user(). So fix this by count the
pending redirected packets and flush when it exceeds NAPI_POLL_WEIGHT
or MSG_MORE was cleared by sendmsg() caller.
With this fix, xdp_redirect_map works again between two TAPs.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. 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.
