tuntap: synchronize through tfiles array instead of tun->numqueues
When a queue(tfile) is detached through __tun_detach(), we move the last enabled tfile to the position where detached one sit but don't NULL out last position. We expect to synchronize the datapath through tun->numqueues. Unfortunately, this won't work since we're lacking sufficient mechanism to order or synchronize the access to tun->numqueues. To fix this, NULL out the last position during detaching and check RCU protected tfile against NULL instead of checking tun->numqueues in datapath.
