Subject: tun: signedness bug in tun_get_user()

From: Dan Carpenter <[email protected]>

[ Upstream commit 15718ea0d844e4816dbd95d57a8a0e3e264ba90e ]

The recent fix d9bf5f1309 "tun: compare with 0 instead of total_len" is
not totally correct.  Because "len" and "sizeof()" are size_t type, that
means they are never less than zero.
