tun: tun_chr_open(): correctly initialize socket uid
sock_init_data() assumes that the `struct socket` passed in input is contained in a `struct socket_alloc` allocated with sock_alloc(). However, tun_chr_open() passes a `struct socket` embedded in a `struct tun_file` allocated with sk_alloc(). This causes a type confusion when issuing a container_of() with SOCK_INODE() in sock_init_data() which results in assigning a wrong sk_uid to the `struct sock` in input. On default configuration, the type confused field overlaps with the high 4 bytes of `struct tun_struct __rcu *tun` of `struct tun_file`, NULL at the time of call, which makes the uid of all tun sockets 0, i.e., the root one. Fix the assignment by using sock_init_data_uid(). Fixes: 86741ec2 ("net: core: Add a UID field to struct sock.")
